i recently switched over to using a finger trackball (left) after having used a thumb trackball (right) for over 8 years. maybe i'm still just getting used to it, but i find the thumb way more comfortable still.
the issue i have with the finger is that it ends up putting a lot of strain on the tendons in the back of my hand/wrist. try lifting your fingers off of your desk while keeping your wrist on the desk: it's that sort of feeling. i'm using a cushioned mousepad to try and elevate my wrist & keep it level with the rest of my hand which helps a lot.
contrast that with the thumb trackball: you're essentially making the exact same shape with your hand as you would a typical mouse. i would personally recommend a thumb for that reason.

Thanks for the explanation, it makes sense.

The other problem I had on windows 11 was whenever it tries to pop-up to ask for credentials (like run as administrator) my computer reboots.
Weird.
No blue screen of death, or anything, I just see the bios after a few seconds.
I saw a yt video and I think I’m missing the “popcnt” instruction as I’m running it on an older AMD ryzen 4.

Don't buy anything OTHER THAN IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad T, X, and W/P Series if you want the Real Business Experience™
>Other business laptops are welcome in /tpg/ (Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook)

Why ThinkPad?
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap
>Excellent keyboards, tactile feel and quiet + the TrackPoint
>Great durability: magnesium roll cage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop
>Easy to repair (most models), upgrade & maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model, spare parts easy & cheap to obtain
>Excellent Linux & *BSD support

Hi. Figured this would be a good place to ask, though it's technically not a thinkpad;

I managed to score myself an old Lenovo B490 for fairly cheap. Having trouble finding info on how to get it to have some better parts though.
Is there anything like the screen upgrades you'd see on a T-series for this? Processor ones too, if any of you know.

Thanks in advance if anyone here knows. Kind of trying to make this into a little project to get better at stuff.

>>106754423
If you have the default 1080p panel, it's almost always the 250 nits variety.

>switches just don't last very long
There was a big meme push in the 'hobby' to ditch German-made Cherry for x, y, or z brand switches from China.
Cherry switches are rated for 50-100 million actuations - in Germany.
The Chinese switches 'claim' they are rated for 50-100 million actuations - but no testing is done, they just copy a Cherry number and sometimes double it.
Hobbyist e-content creators and consumers being completely inept at parsing that difference has real consequences.

Rog ally, ally x or Xbox ally x. Steam deck if you want something cheap. Unfortunately the newest igpus from amd were pretty disappointing (aside from the 8060s) so you might do best to get one of the older models.
