T420

a good condition thinkpad from 2012 you melodramatic shitheel

If you want cheap but not used you might have some trouble. There are some cheap dells with ubuntu. Ir Chromebook .

Mine

Look into cheap Dell computers.

>T420
Lol, sorry senpai. I don't do drugs.

Please, this is a cuckold free thread. It was fine until you arrived.

Pi-top

For me, it's the T400.

Goddamn that's a shitty fucking laptop.

What's the best thinkpad with an HDMI port?

Too expensive for what it offers. I could 3D print some trash case, put a full mechanical keyboard in it, buy some cheap TFT off AliExpress, and jam a massive battery into as well. All except the keyboard for less.

I want a realtop.

Acer

>It was fine until you arrived
Hope you're happy with your t420.

Weed isn't cuckold shit, but it's bad.

Unironically it seems I have to settle for the trashiest of trashtops if I want an x86(-64) machine. Fucking hell.

get a cheap dell or lenovo ideapad

>lenovo ideapad
Literally the worst advice.

and why is that?

HP EliteBook

Had one. Shitty keyboard, terrible touchpad, disgustingly bad wi-fi chipset that has since stopped working altogether and forced me to buy a dongle to even use the internet on it, they forced touchscreens into those and it inflates the price, it's basically a terrible macbook knockoff... need I go on?

ive had 2 over the last 5 years, both are still running fine without any issues. keyboards are fine, touchpad is meh admittedly, and the wifi works just fine, and dont get a touchscreen one?

they're 400 dollar cheap laptops as the OP asked for, not a goddamn MBP.

Any dell, HP or a lenovo ideapad/yoga laptop, preferably the thin stuff since it doesn't look like shit and has decent battery life. You plan to use leenox on it so no need for a discrete gpu for games anyways.
What's your budget by the way my friend?

It's not good, but It works. Battery lasts 8 to 12 hours. Absolutely needs Linux though. Storage is too small for Windows to even update.

My budget is a whopping 200 to 300 USD. Basically I have no choice. All I want to do is dev on a device that doesn't require me to carry a monitor.

Fuck it. Based on the replies, it seems like I have to stick with my SBC, I just fucking want x86 instead of ARM along with portability. Maybe I'll upgrade from an RPi3 to some Chinese shit and literally make a DIY laptop.

>Cheap
>Good
Pick one

>200 to 300 usd
Maybe you should get 19 raspberry PI's, Rajneesh.

Hello fellow apple drone-consumer

For 300 bucks the only "new" stuff you will find is shit that was left in a warehouse rooting away or some chromebook shit.

if you upped to 450 you could technically get a current gen extremely low end dell tho.
700 would start to get to the decent ones. 900 you could even get one with a dedicated GPU which is useless for you.

Also check xiaomi maybe you can buy a xiaomi laptop in chinaland for cheap.

I bought a refurbished dell latitude e6000 series about 5 years ago for $400 from a local computer store. By now, it's definitely in your price range.

4GB ram, 256GB ssd, haswell i5. Runs perfectly on linux

Laptops are for cuckolds. Literally crippling yourself. Get a desktop.

AFAIK he wants to buy new.

Botnets are illegal, Boris.

That's the second thing I looked at after Chromebooks, still far too expensive.

I'm allergic to anything refurbished or used. But the shit in my area isn't cheap, even the ThinkPads. I found some decent shit on Dell's site for factory refurbished laptops, but it's basically the same as their lowest of low garbage... with a 128GB SSD and a better 802.11 chip.

seconding this, Elitebooks are superior to stinkpads in the sense that they are heavily underrated and don't have price inflation due to memes. should be able to set you up with a Latitude or an Elitebook for under 200 dollarydoos

my exact same thought. OP needs to chill

Not him but what are the laptops to look for in the 700-1000 price range?

>I'm allergic to anything refurbished or used
then go fuck yourself and buy a C55 trashiba from Amazon. Piss off you poorfag

>dirty poorfag
>feels too good for used goods

Know your place, user.

chinkpad niggers in their natural environment

>I'm allergic to anything refurbished or used.
well congrats on keeping [some dumb computer company] in business i guess

Entitled OP in his natural environment, we're not your personal search engine faggot and if you can't stand refurbished or used then your price range is too little for anything decent. fuck off

There's a lot of options in that price range.
From dell alone you can pick both stuff with a dedicated GPU or without.
I kinda like this one more since I would never do gayman to begin with in a laptop.
youtube.com/watch?v=1RNWmBRIH2E

This one has a dedicated GPU and the price isn't a lot higher.
youtube.com/watch?v=6TcHf4Y0xPo

Also I would advice actually watching review auntie for laptopshit, she's quite decent in terms of information and also shows affordable stuff.

Only gayman I do is roguelikes but I do like to watch films on the train and my current laptop sucks dicks at this

Step 1: shop.udoo.org/other/udoo-x86-advanced-plus.html
Step 2: 3D print that case of yours
Step 3: Get cheap screen
Step 4: Success

There is no other option, OP. Well... unless you want to buy 's cum encrusted Thinkpad.

>cum encrusted Thinkpad.
I really appreciate this non-argument. There are a lot of business class laptops sold for cheap, but OP is just dismissing them because he needs to get his autism tingled for some reason. Stay poor and dumb.

If the roguelike you're talking about is shit like PoE, Diablo and Torchlight you will need the dedicated GPU so I guess the second option is a good contender.

That one has a starting price of around 750~800 on dell's site.

Nah mat I'm talking about things like this

Sounds like a plan

WTF i love this tech GILF now

>poor
>dumb
are chinkpadders used to writing their own autobiographies or something

Pretty much any Intel/Intel-IGP laptop will run Linux perfectly. Thinkpads have good support on Linux because besides the trackpoint they're very vanilla Intel laptops.

>are chinkpadders used to writing their own autobiographies or something
ad hominem. Nice

First one then.
Cheaper, better battery life due to no GPU and you can just slap a nice SSD in it for more speed.

jesus the fucking pretzel you'd twist yourself into just to not buy a fucking used thinkpad

Sup Forums is full of idiots, but their groupthink got one thing right: a used business laptop is the most robust, most powerful, best solution for computing on a poorfag's lap, sub-$300, period. anything new is garbage, every dumb idea like "3d print a case for an SBC" is a non-solution that will always disappoint

but fine get an hp stream or whatever the fuck is $199 at best buy, just don't come crawling back when it shits the bed

Leave for a while and the "I own a laptop that was previously used to store loli porn" crew arrives in droves.

Sorry for not wanting the ThinkPad nu-Retro, or buying some unreliable second hand trash just because it's also ThinkPad and I like cumstain keyboards. Oy vey, these dilemmas are too tiresome.

I can't believe I'm actually looking at embedded shit and SBCs to unironically create my own "laptop". Is this peak Sup Forums...

How bad can it get if I do go the SBC route? At least I'll get Arduino features. Ultra cheaptops are out of the picture, bucko.

This. Get a second hand thinclient, they're great.

W520

well look at the one that guy linked: $175 for an sbc with a celeron n3160

that's $50 more than what a used x220 with an i5-2520m often sell for on ebay, which will be 3x faster, come with a screen, come with a keyboard, come with a psu, come with a fucking case.

nevermind upgrades. sbc ssd/ram soldered to the board. hope you like 32gb/4gb forever

I could not care less about storage size. Even 16GB will do fine by me.

Okay, ChinkPad niggers, is an x220 easy to repair and is it still viable? The last time I even touched a ThinkPad was when IBM still owned the brand. How decent is a refurbished unit's battery life?

keyboard, replaceable
screen, replaceable, upgradable
ram, replaceable, upgradable
battery, replaceable, comes in 3, 6, 9 cell sizes
hdd, replaceable, upgradable, there's space for two drives
power jack, replaceable
etc
etc
etc

every part that can be replaced is available for cheap on ebay. old thinkpads are one of the most repairable, upgradable, moddable laptops around. other old business laptops like the elitebook, latitude, etc can be similarly compared. it's not just poorfaggery that led Sup Forums to these, research was done, pros/cons of different models, brands, form factors, new vs old, debated for years. it always comes back to "used thinkpad, or at least some other used business laptop" every single time

as for "viability", shit hasn't gotten much faster in 6 years. an i5-2520m is about 30% slower than an i5-7200u. there are brand new laptops being sold with atoms, celerons, pentiums, i3s, that are still slower than sandy bridge . only 8th gen core mobile has really stepped up (by branding quad cores as base i5s), but those aren't going to be in a $125 laptop any time soon

Acer Aspire One D255e has 100% hardware support. Not that Acer or Atom or 1024x600 are great, but literally everything in it works in Linux right away and it is one of the cheapest laptops.

How effective is a Z60t? I can get that shit for a hundred, and with an SSD in it.

not worth it. core 2 duo is bareass minimum (that i wouldn't even bother with in an ocean of cheap sandy/ivy thinkpads) and a z60t comes with a single core pentium M. by the time you upgrade it to a c2d chip you could have just bought an x220/x230/t420/t430 with 3x the power

yikes

> Atom vs. i5
Wooow. Now, choosing 80486 vs. Xeon is when things start getting really fun.

no shit yet fools still trying to push atoms and celerons on ya

i have a 1st gen i3 laptop i use for youtube and web browsing in general, with windows 10 on it and only recently did youtube start loading videos slowly

a 2nd gen i5 will comfortably give you a smooth experience for anything that isn't CPU demanding to the max for the next 5 years no problewm

this
I have one from 2014 and it runs debian without any problems

What this guy said, I have an Elitebook 8460p with a 2nd Gen i5 and it does 1080p60 with h264 just fine on youtube.

I have a ThinkPad X230. Works well with a 275GB SSD and 12GB of RAM.

m-muh THINKPAD

BUY THINKPAd

THINKPAD BEST

BUHBUHBUH THINKPAD

That dry chink cum-encrusted cock slid up OP's ass nicely, though.
> "Oh god anything but an HP Stream!"

i fell for the meme. got an x220 for just over $100, running elementary, and everything just werx.

>buys the neckbread special
>runs fake MacOS

y?
