>She pays 25000 a year for a fucking tank because the college doesn't trust general studies students to not break their laptop
I'd feel embarrassed for my college's lack of trust in me

>I pay

Thinkpads are literally garbage why does Sup Forums even shill them lmao love my macbook pro

kek

Because I like them.

That's a concept even you should be familiar with.

Macbooks are a big red flag of faggotry.

>anybody who doesn't like my mac is a shill

I mean, MacBooks aren't bad, but I like the functionality of ThinkPads

Ewwwww wtf lol

i'm laughing that laptop is so ugly

Lol this looks like something Emily (I call my mom by her first name) used in the 90s!

Lol so ugly

HAha wow only 90s kids will recognize this

That's like SO retro but seriously omg omg i love my macbook

HAHAHAHA

Look at the pot calling the kettle black.

The T410 hates you too.

>tank
>thinkpad
Come back when you've handled a toughbook, famarino

Nobody cares!

I pay nothing a year to see the same shit posted here everyday?

god time for a new hobbie

>Pink hair and trendy cut
>Heavy eye makeup and black lipstick
DROPPED

Sup Forums is pretty much the only place where these pieces of shit are praised. Thank fuck I never fell for a thinkpad meme.

Yeah, I wold be ashamed to walk in to the Starbucks with Thinkpad.

Yet you use macs.

Women are so stupid

You're either a women or a homosexual, if the former TITS OR GTFO

But I don't use Starbucks sweetie :3

>sweetie

Leave now, and never return.

Because you don't need to drop $1,500 to have a nice computing experience.

Thinkpads have the stigma of being in the workforce for an incredibly long time and thus are treated like any kind of public or lended resource. There's no small reason for it; Thinkpads are extremely affordable while having one of the strongest track records for reliability and have the ability to swap any part imaginable on them. All of those things are incredibly attractive to Sup Forums users who enjoy being able to customize any machine to suit their needs.

There's a lot of value in having Apple. Macbooks have longevity to a certain extent that stems from efficient design and being able to know what kind of software will be on it in the coming years. For some people that approach works for them, especially if it means they can pay to not worry about their computing experience. That experience is a luxury that most (especially on Sup Forums) can't afford.

You can be poor and be clean. You can still have a good computing experience if you're willing to put in the work.

>Because you don't need to drop $1500 to have a nice computing experience
The newest T model is most always around the $1500 mark, and that's what business will get. Also
>Appleshit after jobs died
>longetivity
Planned obsolescence is knocking on your door if you have a 2014-present macbook. At least they made quality shit for a couple years after Jobs died until they became complete Jews.

when I was 18 I bought one. Went to college and people in my class thought I had stole it. No one said much of it

Give it back Tyrone

What shitty thinkpad are you buying?
If its newer than a t420/x220 they are shit.
Get a T410 and get it from a reputable dealer that wont sell you dogshit.

>ANSI return
This must be why her is angry.
Truly a disgrace.

>Thinkpads are literally garbage
>Trigger warning

it's made from TOILET SEAT-GRADE PLASTIC!

X61t, T410, X220i

>T410
Why do I not believe you? Oh yeah, because I own one and two of my college associates each own one too.
>t. T410, W541 and Toughbook G19 owner

Because you refuse to believe that lelnovo's QC might be sub-par?

After changing hands on ebay one or five times only the good ones remain, and the lemons are either repaired and hopefully put together a little better than they were before or donated/scrapped/repurposed.

I was unlucky enough to get a laptop owned and very lightly used by one very lucky person with very gentle fingers.

I'd feel bad if I paid 25k a year for a school and they made me use laptops with Kensington locks on them.

I got one that was used for 3 years by Humana, then used for a year by the guy I bought it off of. It has served me well for the 3 years I've owned it, and has survived a car crash.
You got an x61t, a lemon, and an outsourced laptop.

Three lemons in a row. It's almost like thinkpads are cheap mass produced fleet laptops that are 100% chinese and all the myths about their reliability have more to do with survivor bias perceived by impoverished users who only buy second/third/fourth hand than their actual reliability.

Speaking of fleets, I was lucky enough to use actual IBM models in middle school. They broke pretty easily but were promptly replaced, supposedly for cheap or else the school would reconsider letting all students borrow laptops for on-campus use.

>*61s are notoriously shit
>*XX0i are the cheaper option
>T410 was probably a lemon

>>haven't seen a W701ds yet.

T400 masterrace

I can replace parts as I please

...

Only problem with a T400 is the lack of a proper Core i-series CPU.

>W701 dual screen
>Tank
See

Yes, lack of 1080p youtube will be a problem in the next years. (4500mhd anti-masterrace)

Just saying, a non-hyperthreaded dual core (like the Core 2 Duo) is slowly becoming more and more anemic for general computing.

>paying for higher education
I don't know this feeling.
Unis are free in Eastern Europe if you have high enough scores.
We even get free software licenses and devices sometimes.

Why are Americans such primitive savages when it comes to education?

>Uni
>Free
Shiggy, taxpayers pay for it via a ~40% tax.
It is not free.

you pay for it through your taxes retard

dunno about that user but the taxes here are low as fuck compared to majority of the west

Post income country and tax percentage.
>$70000
>USA
>~27%

meaningless

the living costs here are extremely low compared to anywhere in the west

Yeah it works with europe's culture. It does not work when more people take from the system than they contribute, and you can see your system deteriorate before your eyes with the migrant crisis.

Until you go to america and understand what it is like there stop pulling your "you need free healthcare and free university" crap.

at least your fingers aren't raw after using a macbook touchpad.

>What is the midwest
3000 sq. Foot house with 1 acre of land in partiallu suburban/rural area costs $240,000 here, food is cheap and you can grow your own.

>$240,000
oh my
user is that supposed to be cheap

>tax percentage
Which one? The overall or the specific one related to education? Because the overall is irrelevant, while the education is the topic.
I mean, i know you need to lower yourself to deception in order to jerk off about numbers, but really user?

>3000 sq. foot
Another example. And this is brand new, and one of the more expensive ones.

What's good about thinkpads? Is the one in the picture a newer one? Surely the older ones would not be desirable in the year of our lord 2016

That number is total income tax for everything, state local and federal.

>newer than memes
The newer than memepads thinkpads are usually better build.

Its a 2010 thinkpad. Newer ones are less robust than the older ones.

Well she does look like a dinosaur, so i'd say they shipped her with the correct laptop.

>buy ThinkPad
>6 years later
>still doing great with the latest Version of windows, can swap hardware parts as it pleases me

This to be quite honest.

Thin long enter key is a billion times better than fat tall ISO garbage.

white

not like you had chance anyway, eugene

thinkpad x220 is literally the best portable computer ever made. Full size tactile keyboard, second gen mobile i5, i7 processor that still rivals some u processors from today, 20 hrs battery life, indestructible frame, spill proof keytray, every component is easily swapable with detailed documentation, all under 3lbs

this

I'm disappointed in both of their tits.

Hahah, that is funny because Tyrone is a black mans name. Casual racism is hilarious!

I think we need to RMA this one, it's defective.

it's not a thinkpad, but how decent is the ideapad 310? looks like the best i'm going to do for $300-$400 (yes i know about intel not doing it)

>ideapad 310

im sorry but its garbage. only old models of thinkpads are held to highesteem. This was before lenovo decided to destroy everything that was good about the design and copy apple. Find a used x220 see the ideapad 310 has none of these features

i'm looking for power too tho

To be fair, she does have a point. The T410 is a 2011 model if I remember, and computers in institutions really should be rotated every 5 years or so.

Why does Sup Forums fall for this obvious bait?

youtube.com/watch?v=byCqOvRMOvo

Your mommy is defective

I love Thinkpads. I've used HP, Dell the Developer vostro etc.. even a Macbook. Nothing gives me the geek feel like the Thinkpad! the X series is just crazy tank builds. The X1 Carbon is good, besides the touch stuff thing at the top. That totally made it Suck!

>I pay $25,000 a year to use this dinosaur laptop?
>women in tech

It's like watching a female learning to drive. You just know it ends in disaster.

>things that never happened

yeah, mongoloid, but you pay for uni + taxes, I only pay taxes

Does anyone have the screenshot of the guy who sent her a DM about it?

i am dming her (it) right now

is this the typical american in 2017?

essentially. Sad how neutrality has been all but eradicated.

i can't make heads or tails of this
is this a quote-generating AI or something?

My coworker did IT for the Military in Iraq. Said Toughbooks were dying constantly from things as simple as falling off a Humvee seat onto the sand.

looks like she doesn't know what a bay leaf is either.

any cu/ck/s here?

My friend did military stuff for the military in Iraq and said Toughbooks were the only laptops not constantly shitting the bed from getting thrown around a helicopter.
