Laptops for college?

What are some good laptops that
>have no touchscreen shit
>have no gayming 3 inch thick body
>look decent
>are made between 2015 and the present day
>are under 1000$

Pic absolutely not related

Thinkpad x1 or buy a x220 and max it out. You aren't going to find a decent laptop for under 1000 dollars.

*decent recent laptop

Anything with a dedicated gpu is gonna be hot as balls with poor battery life. I have a Lenovo y40-80 with a modified heatsink, redone paste and pads, cut half the back case out around the fans, and undervolt the CPU. Still can't get the gpu below 80 and the couch below 75.

Yeah that's why I'm steering clear of gaming shit. I need it for college work, not for recreation

First or Second gen HP ZBook off ebay.

For what it's worth, I have a laptop with discrete 960M and can disable it in favor of the integrated graphics processor if I need more than 6 hours of battery life. I'm rarely with a computer and without an outlet for so long, so I just leave the NVidia GPU enabled most of the time. If I gave a shit I'd probably have it switch based on whether or not it's plugged in to the wall.

What laptop?

any laptop with dual graphics allows you to switch off discrete graphics in the bios.

It's an Asus RoG of some or another type... looks like GL552VW-DH74 going by the sticker on the bottom. When it was new, I had some driver issues in Linux but it's been running Mint without anything obvious missing for a year now, and without Windows since January.

Any macbook pro, there's nothing it can't do

Run windows 7?
As far i know, the bootcamp is generally limited to the newest microsoft OS.

>decent
>recent
>cheap
H*psters get out of my board. Buy a thinkpad x200

got this for under 900 back during feburary refirb.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha nice joke applefag

dell xps 13 or macbook
former has great linux support with a nice screen and macbooks are well built with a posix compliant os, although I don't know how expensive they are so it might be out of your price range

Found this. Worth it?

if you enjoy a 35 minute battery life and a cum glazed keyboard, i'm sure it will perfectly suit your needs and desires.

This is just not completely true anymore.

If you are gaming then yeah you should not expect anything less but gaming laptops with 10 series nvidia gpus run great and don't get as hot as they used to.

What if I use it as a desktop computer perpertually on charge?

If you don't need windows, get a chromebook and chuck your favourite distro on it. You'll save a shitload of money. Just make sure it's a 2gb RAM model, and has at least a 32gb SSD (though you can upgrade the SSD on many of the models).

Do not listen to this user. There's a lot more to replacing Chrome OS than just "chucking Linux on it." You CAN put Linux on many Chromebooks, but often you'll have to replace the firmware first and you might be stuck using Gallium OS to keep hardware functionality intact. I have Gallium on a Chromebook right now, but the audio drivers break sometimes requiring a reboot, Bluetooth is spotty, and my wireless drops inexplicably sometimes. If you buy a Chromebook to use Linux on, either understand that it will be work (something I'm sure you don't want as a student) or do your research and find a Chromebook that will run a well supported distro.

Buy a used HP Elitebook 840 G2 or HP Elitebook 1040 G2

300-400 dollar
