>>108296244Normies absolutely don't want to be seen with that plastic thing
>>108295389>home server>8gb ram>256gb storage>two USB portsit's an "ok" laptop, but it would be a miserable server
>>108295389no key backlighting is a genuine dealbreaker for meit literally costs $15 to add it, just add it
>>108295389The year of linux desktop isn't even close and windows is turning into an agentic slop.This will unironically be my first apple product it will be available for less than 1000 gdprbucks
>>108295389>8GB memory>256 SSDYeah, pass. If you could upgrade these, maybe.
>did you know you can run Chrome comfortably on a computer that doesn't cost your left kidney (SHOCKING)Yes? Comparable Lenovo laptops for 500 bucks offer 16gb ram and 512 or even 1TB SSDs and that includes things like fingerprint readers. That's just the first page of Amazon not even digging on other stores or manufacturers or looking for deals. Just the most basic "give me a laptop for 500" search. It's like Macfags think anything less expensive than a Mac has to be some giant ancient brick out of the early 2000's, like they're still mentally stuck on those I'm a mac and I'm a PC commercials.
Releasing a laptop with 16gb of RAM is unacceptable in 2026. It's propably a honey pot. You see that macs start at $600 that's almost in your budget. You research more and buy yourself a $1000 Air. >>108296826To be fair this macbook and lenovo for 600 dollars will be very different devices. Those lenovos aren't really laptops as portable computers. It's more like a stay home computer that you can bring with you if you really need to. Heavy, bad trackpad, dislocated keyboard with a numpad, dim screen with low resolution.
>>108295848>no sync across devices>max 40-50 wpm (only achievable by scribbling)>much slower correction actions>no auto-correct>no mass find-replace>no auto-tagging>no hyperlinking>no regex search nor capture>limited storage capacitybut i will admit>can't be censored>no AI>no tracking
>>108295848>pathetic data density>infinitesimal writing speed>no undo>no sharing capabilities>no search function>requires manual power applied>sustains damage during transportyou can keep it
>>108295848best is you can make your own, too
>>108295389>it would be an absolute steal if apple stopped being greedy and added touch id and other stuff to the basic modelnigga i don't want that shit on my computer anyway, base model is perfect. i'd much rather spend the extra 500ms on login typing a password in than giving my finger print data over to apple
>>108295389>>Can be used as a home serveryeah in the same way a raspberry pi or any other shitty laptop you have lying around "could" be a home server. fine for little toy projects you develop and then never touch after playing with for two days, but not something anyone would ever use seriously
>>108295389I was thinking of getting an iPad as a "cheap" thing to throw in a a bag but this might be good too... though being able to draw on an iPad is nice.
>calling $600 $500>shit specslol, lmao
>>108296016It is certified Linux
>>108297079You mean certified Unix?
>>108297068student discount puts it at $500, they don't verify at all in the US (eurocucks can't say the same lol)
>>108296244>Can work about 16h on batterymore like 1.6hit also gets very hotI like my t480 but come on. The screen is meh, the battery sucks, not a great internet browsing machine.Paid 200$ for mine, put in 32gb ram and use all of it so i'm not switching to a macbook any time soon.What's next? are you going to recommend a 1U server to put under tv?
>>108297068>1 year newer>3.5x the power>1% faster?In practice the battery life is probably less than 1/4
>>108297935you were saying?
>>108298014>2020what about your t480?depending on the use it's between under 4 and under 2h, linux and windows
>>108298347>g*nome
>>108298369please don't judge, my kde just broke :(
>>108297454they don't verify anything in holland either
i only use my laptop for 4chan, twitter and youtube. i'm sure it would be fine for that. but i hate apple keyboards and trackpads. which is why i have stuck with thinkpads for 15 years
>>108297454Qrd? What do you need to submit to have them give you a discount in the US?
>>108296356>The year of linux desktop isn't even closeSuck it up and install fvwm.
>>108295389>Costs 500$700€ for 8gb ram is insane.
>>108295389>$600>8GB of RAM>60hz displayYou niggas can't be serious.
