Install software useful for your job and use it for work.
Grayson Evans
I already have a Lenovo Ideapad with the same specs which is more modern.
Leo Cox
this is the laptop given to you by your work, you should work on it instead
Juan Johnson
This, if you know what's good for you.
Xavier Murphy
Throw it in the trash.
Gabriel Hernandez
Flash the BIOS with libreboot.

Ignore this guy.
Don't put any trannyboot (core/libre) on your Thinkpad.
Oliver Watson
Was not planning on doing anything like that.
Alexander Rivera
Go fuck yourself you freedom hating bootlicker
You should.
Wyatt Long
Ignore this guy Instead of flashing with trannyboot, flash it with a modded/whitelisted bios.
Oliver Barnes
install gentoo
Levi Jones
Is Ubuntu good enough?
Hudson Rogers
Libreboot
Adam Gutierrez
Nigger detected
Matthew Peterson
I'd install Fedora instead
Adam Wilson
Ignore this guy Install libreboot, it will DOUBLE your vRAM and let you use any wifi chip, because it's a BIOS that actually respects your freedom and fundamental human rights as a computer user.
Yes, if you use the GNU+Linux-libre kernel and disable the nonfree repos.
Sebastian Perez
add ram, ssd,
replace wifi module with atheros wifi module,
replace battery,
purchase flashing kit,
flash bios to libreboot,
install trisquel, tlp
Charles Ramirez
ignore these guys install hardened gentoo and emerge all network-facing applications with CFI instead
Jonathan Martinez
Ignore this guy Trannyboot it's incompatible with Window. It's
very messy with it.
If you have a REAL job, won't be using hobbyst/freetard software in your machine.
Just put more RAM on it and an SSD and you'll be fine without those trannyboot shit.
Asher Reed
Install Libreboot and OpenBSD
No I'm kidding, this is a work computer, so it fucking depends of OP's work. If OP needs to work with Mach or needs some proprietary firmware, go for Windows. If OP is a backend developer, go for Fedora or Qubes OS. If OP is a sysadmin, go for OpenBSD.

You say that like it's a bad thing. Go fuck yourself bootlicker.
Noah Brooks
> You say that like it's a bad thing
Why use a BIOS that's it's compatible only with a pair of distros when you can use a real BIOS that can be used with any OS out there? (Including Windows, Linux distros and Mac OS)
Keep being a freetard.
Ian Davis
No, while it's the best Loonix distro that just werkz, don't do anything to your laptop other than anything work related, so unless your work requires you to use a linxu distro, don't.
Alexander Martin
No dumb dumb, Libreboot is compatible with ALL linux distros and BSD
Colton Perry
I do web design
Charles Kelly
I am thinking off installing more ram and a SSD any recommendations?
Michael Brooks
Specs on your machine?

Carson Gomez
Get an SSD
Upgrade to 8GB RAM, it's not technically supported but it will work with the right memory modules
Use these newegg.com
I have them in several X200 and they work great
Replace the wifi chip with an atheros AR9380
You'll need core/libreboot or a whitelist BIOS to use that
New keyboards/palmrests are very cheap on ebay if they need to be replaced

Celeron and 2GB of RAM
Julian Evans
>Celeron
In that case, disregard everything in this thread and dispose of it in the nearest trash can.
Xavier Thompson
>disable the nonfree repos
nice meme
