What's the mac book equivalent for people that actually need to get shit done?

What's the mac book equivalent for people that actually need to get shit done?

Ideally:
>Light
>Screen resolution from this century
>Good battery life
>GOOD keyboard and trackpad

Does it exist bros?

ASUS makes macbook looking ripoffs, check those out. Zenbook or something.

nothing, maybe the new Surface Laptop

Precision 5520.

Google pixel 2013

$230

Track pad is not for people that want to get shit done.

You mean a MacBook Pro?

Wintoys are for video games, not work.

>fagpad

Jesus Christ.

macbook has none of the except being lightweight

No, they literally do not make computers for productivity anymore.
All laptops have to be paper thin and ultra light and have 12 hour batteries because the only thing people do with their computers outside these days is post on social media inside a starbucks at 10am on a weekday.

>Good battery life
This is pretty subjective, since it depends on your tolerance and general access to a wall plug.

Battery life is shit in basically everything now since everything is wafer thin with a 2k screen.

MacBook Pro tbqh

Why not just install Windows 10 on a MacBook Pro? It sounds like exactly what you're looking for.

Realistically though, you should be able to "get shit done" on MacOS unless you're a Windows programmer or something.

It's not like Windows is inherently better at spreadsheets and shit, Microsoft Office is on both operating systems.

a macbook pro? or maybe a surface book, keyboard and trackpad on that are pretty great.

true
cheapest random usb/wireless mouse that works is.

Dell inspiron 1810

By "get shit done" he obviously meant "play games."

prolly the xps 13?

Currently eyeing the HP Envy 13. Is it any good?

I used one of these for a little while, I don't think it has the battery life you're looking for to be honest

You should never give Dell or especially HP your money for a laptop. They are awful and have been awful for more than a decade.

>Games on a laptop

this

Spectre x360

Thinkpad X1 Carbon

>Track pad is not for people that want to get shit done.

>Battery life is shit in basically everything now since everything is wafer thin with a 2k screen.

Thankfully professional laptops still have external batteries.
Once those are gone we're fucked.

Asus Zenbook UX390UA

Thank me later.

Any Thinkpad prior to 2012.

>>Light

tfw you want to get shit done but the laptop sitting on the desk in front of you isn't light enough so all you can do is watch porn, play gaymes and post on Sup Forums all day long.

How shit is the dell xps developer edition? Can it power a windows 10 VM without burning up?

There is only one option.

Have you ever worked with the apple trackpad for a long time ?
It's the best thing that happen to my right hand since a long time ago.
It is closer to the keyboard and you can do much more with 5 fingers than a mouse with option click shit

No.

To GET SHIT DONE you use keyboard shortcuts, not a fucking mouse pointer.

Browsing Sup Forums isn't "getting shit done".

Nobody "gets shit done" on a macbook.

thinkpad

>you can do much more with 5 fingers than a mouse with option click shit
objectively false

that i7 surface laptop sounds like my fuckng dreams come true
I'll get the next iteration with thunderbolt

GETTING SHIT DONE
is not only being a codebot

I do photo/video editing and it's the best thing that happen to me

>2200 dollars
>Graphics 640

ayy lmao

Stop saying everything is the "best thing to ever happen" to you, you penis.

>I'm a colossal faggot

Plenty of domain-specific professional software only runs on Windows.

>I do photo/video editing
>with a trackpad.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Last gen Macbook before they removed all the ports.

i'm not a richfag you fag

you do video editing with a cintiq?
why?

A 2014 MacBook Pro

>can afford a Mac
>can't afford a $200 drawing tablet

At the very very least use a mouse
Editing with a trackpad is just retarded, sorry.

Get an used thinkpad then. At least you will have a good keyboard.

I own a tablet but not the ones with screens you faggot.

I edit for TV and documentaries and it's really great lil bro

>guys I edit pictures with a trackpad look at me!
- that's dumb.

>hurr noooo!! I has a tablet I is a real TV professional person really I'm already a big girl

So if Windows is shit for productivity, and OSX is shit for productivity, which OS do you recommend?

It entirely depends on what industry you want to be productive in.
In my industry, everyone use gnu/linux.

We don't know which industry he works in. Yet you assumed Windows to be useless.

I'm a 3D metal designer for example. It's pretty much Windows only if you want to get a job.

Productivity isn't an activity, my man.

What do you want to be productive at?

Macbook pro

Why is the rMBP so great, bros?

If it was for a job I'd want to be as productive as possible. So it would be like
>Loonix for server related stuff
>Wendwos for everything else

Guess I'm drifting off here. I'll leave it at this.

more windows if you do everything in a single application, linux for everything else.

Fujitsu Lifebook S935 with an additional caddy battery (lasts for about 17h on balanced power mode, also note that it has a with a QHD screen)

MacOS is fine if your job only requires software that is available on a Mac. Graphic design and art stuff is often using Mac's because of their excellent screens, though there are some Windows laptops now that are just about as good.

It's a meme that Mac's aren't for work, they're computers. If you do work that is possible on a Mac then it's just as good at it as on a PC.

Yeah but why pay a higher price if you have a smaller range of possibilities.

To not have to deal with every shit thing about Windows for the few things it does better

trackpads are fine on MacBooks, just nail the right sensitivity down and take advantage of multi touch

What a strange thread. I've never heard of any dev tools not available for Mac, and Windows missing out on having a powerful shell console kind of defeats the person of the OS entirely for me.

If you're not using OSX at work I assume you're using RedHat, otherwise what are the support guarantees?

Obviously not asking the hobbiests and gamers, computers are just toys for them.

fujitsu is sub-walmart garbage tier.

used lots of fujitsu workstation shit at work, NEVER EVER TOUCH A FUJITSU PRODUCT

Chuwi Lapbook 14.1

>mac book equivalent

>Windows missing out on having a powerful shell console kind of defeats the person of the OS entirely for me

Windows Subsystem for Linux, friend.

Although Powershell is surprisingly good

Enjoy your eye cancer while I bask in the glory of Retina™ display.

Gentoo

They are even the same price for a similar ram/ssd configuration.

get an asus

Here, have some Apple retardation to help you decide whether or not you want to be as retarded.

>"Le Retina XD display"

Okay I'll bask in the glory of my display which is higher than retina display.

>he thinks 2560x1600 is cutting edge

LMAO

>Shows bait as an excuse

I wish it was bait user. But these people actually exist. They know the absolute square root of jack shit about technology, hence why they run out and buy a $600 graphics card which is completely incompatible with their Apple shit.

They have a "Pro" line. They're the best. I prefer the 2015 models to the 2016, but the new keyboards do feel and sound much more like a mechanical keyboard.

yea, it's called macbook

The Macbook Pro

>accurate colors & vivid display for art projects
>2560x1600 display
>16:10 aspect ratio
>gestures to manage multiple windows & desktops
>good keyboard
>good battery life
>best font rendering
>UNIX operating system

MacOS is heaven for productivity

>productivity

Meanwhile im stuck with my 970 that I saved for then turned out to be a meme

>I do photo/video editing and it's the best thing that happen to me
Nobody uses trackpads to edit photos. Why do you have to lie?

>i'm not a richfag you fag
Yet somehow you're able to afford a Macbook.

>I own a tablet but not the ones with screens you faggot.
So then you don't use the trackpad to edit.

You're still much better off than a Mactard though

As an ex-donglebook 2015 with a constantly overheating 800MHz dual-core processor I would have to say: lolno

>Windows Subsystem for Linux
>having the shell isolated in a sandbox that emulates a real system

this

even normies hate windows now, the only people who even try to defend it still are fatass neckbeard gamers because "Muh pc master race" is the only thing in their lives that makes them feel superior

>baiting this hard

Nothing better to do on a Sunday night eh user?

Oh well this is awkward...

Anyway an XPS 13 with 4K screen is what you need OP.

dude stop shitposting this. we know you got a good laptop deal, calm down

T420

>XPS
>EliteBook
>awful

unironically
>thinkpad
>latitude
>elitebook

the soul purpose of these machines is get shit done. just get one with a 1080p screen or invest in the beefier variants for a 4k screen

...

Microsoft Surface Laptop, Pre-Order Now!

>windows store apps only
>get shit done

>he doesn't know about the free upgrade to Win 10 Pro

After the free period it's only $50 too.

Gotta do your research, user
