remember what they took from you
>>108729910I can still do that, no one took it from me
What gay ass laptop are you using to not open it?
>>108729910Framework laptops exist thoughever?
>>108729910That's not a T60.
>>10872991010 years ago this would have been a pic of someone repairing or upgradingtoday it's a pic of stealing $599 RAM to sell it on craigslist
>>108729914laptop name?>>108729918>gayquit projecting>>108729922not the same
>>108729914congrats on your 10 year old hardware
i have a lenovo yoga and the ram is soldered :(
>>108729946AND THAT'S A GOOD THING!
>>108729930It is meaningfully the same doe
>>108729922they don't even have swappable drive bays
>>108729984>>108729910god those 2015-2020 laptops were pure modding and upgrading kino we didn't know how good we had it
You can't even access the motherboard though
>>108729988>2015-2020I think you mean 1990-2010
>>108730004>oh nice insertable sata ssd>wait >does that say modemwtf
>>108729984No need when you have 8tb ssd option
>>108730004These cards were surprisingly tactile to use.
>>108729963>no dvd/blu-ray drive>no hard drive caddy>no hot swappable batteriesnot even close>>108729984based
>>108730017pic rel>>108730038I liked them. Though I think they were mainly for network cards and storage
>>108730036can you put 4 drives on you laptop, cause with my t430s i can
>>108730057Where you gonna find 8tb sata ssds?
>>108730064amazon
>>108730069Can you give me a model name?
>>108730057Framework can also have 4 drives, all of which are nvme10 if you count usb c ssd modules
>>108730069*scamazon
>>108730088>can't have 4 drives with 3x usb, ethernet, and thunderbolt at the same timenice cope
>>108730004>no touchpad and other wasted space in front of the keyboardlooks comfy
>>108730094You can have even more tho,The framework can have 2 ssd slots normally + 2 ssds in graphics module with 6 ports to spare
>>108729914Until you need a new laptop.
>>108730057kek look at this niggeri can put 4 ram sticks, 2 nvme, 1 2.5inch and msata in my P52, i am sitting on 4 tb now but could easily have 20tb in itthat thing is old and ready for trash
>>108729910honestly im pro LPCAMM replacing SODIMMiirc the sodimms were far less power efficient>>108729984m.2 is better
>>108730094>>108730057>Moving the goalpost like a lil bitch
>>108730111>1x nvme to expresscard adapter>1x msata>2x sata (one via ultrabay)who's the nigger again?
>>108730118>projecting
>>108729910laptops not having socketed CPUs anymore fucking sucks too
>>108730054I used one of these with an x230
>>108730143I accept your concession.
>>1087301082 more weeks right?
>>108730171>1x pci-e lanesvs 2x pci-e lanes via thunderboltt430s is better
>>108730181Ok but I had an x230 which didn't have thunderbolt...
>>108729922>pay apple prices for the equivalent of stinkpad from 2022bro?
>>108730192ik,that's why i went with the t430s>>108730172after you accept mine first
>>108730192x230's are still a good machines
>>108729930>laptop name?Lenovo thinkbook 16p g6 iax. I can unscrew the back and upgrade whatever I want
>captive screws>whole back pops off>all guts exposed>DDR5 SODIMM's>NVMe 2280 SSD>screw-in batteryWorks on my machine.>>108730116Same, LPCAMM's are the future and Lenovo will 100% start using them in Thinkpads once they catch on, as well as both Intel and AMD using them in their mobile chip specs over soldered RAM since they basically solve all the issues of SODIMM's.>DDR5 speeds reaching wireless radio frequencies>DIMM form factor dating back to like the 80's with SIMM's>power hungry and bulky, not fit for modern laptops>traces too long for DDR5 to work without fuckery>DDR6 will be soldered only without a better modile>LPCAMM is basically soldered but not soldered>almost like a transparent contact layer>basically a dumb idea not to use themofc retards who are obsessed with Chinknovo's Stinkpads from circa 2010 will never accept them as they are obsessed with legacy tech and refuse to accept that the legendary durability ended with IBM and that modern Stinkpads are better than the ones of old. No, no one is going to carry spare batteries with them to hot swap, but they will carry USB-C powerbanks they'll be able to charge both their smartphone and their laptops with while Lenovo will offer replacements as CRU and they're piss easy to replace, and WiFi modules were on a whitelist since forever, and it's not like these are notorious for failing so having them soldered is a non-issue.
>>108730296I would still use it if the battery wasn't dead. I've looked for replacements but it seems like most are just old stock or "refurbished". Would be cool if someone sold rebuilt batteries for it.
>>108730370you might find good health used batteries on ebay, that's where I got mine
>>108729910>remember what they took from youthey took my penis and said it would help with my body dysmorphia
>>108729910yes, but now laptops are 2mm thinner. everyone was asking for thinner laptops, right? it wasn't just something that the laptop industry decided was important on their own, right?
>>108730429they were but laptops have gotten to thin
>>108729910framework out now
>>108730544>no trackpoint
>>108730134>3rd gen i5>adapter>dockyou are the nigger
laptops need to be standardized like desktops so i can put in a motherboard a cpu ram gpu... not to add 4 usb c ports and pretend you solved a problem, niggers cant even make a standard battery
>>108729910why would I not want lpcamm2 instead of that?
>>108730544bad screens, buggy firmware, shit corporate support, expensive parts, usually behind on offering the latest tech>but linus invested!
>>108730688there will never be a reason to do this because organizations will buy these things by the hundreds/thousands and they don't give a shit about these features.they'll even buy the 80 dollar dock that gives it back to them.it can easily be done if they wanted to since laptops are all the same shape and size these days anyways but there's no actual market for it.
>>108730667>can be upgraded to quad-core i7's>wrong>wrong again
>>108730203>pay apple prices for the equivalent o>>108730716None of these things are true, are you schizophrenic by any means?
>>108730823>3rd gen>upgradelollmao even
>>108731032cope
>>108731041seethe
>>108731045dilate
>>108729910>old clunker: 3 hours of battery life (1 under load), heavy, slow, need to disassemble it to replace paste every 2 years lest the gpu melts, need to replace the wifi module every 3 years cause it inexplicably breaks; all so you can upgrade the hdd to ssd>modern laptop: it just works (tm) but you can't upgrade ram (twice as fast due to being soldered) so I guess it's worseI think I prefer modernity
>>108730775there is market, a lot of ppl assemble desktops, many would assemble a laptop too
>>108730916This shit is more expensive than a MBP M5 Pro in my countryi genuinely dont get the appeal for framework. upgrading their laptops cost nearly as much as getting a brand new one so whats the point really.
>He’s not using a 2010 laptop and just remote connecting to his desktop for powerBrainlet
>>108731323>interesting idea>do research about framework>scamming jeet ceoam i supposed to be surprised?
>>108731323what country?
>>108731375>hes whitehu sure bud
>>108729910Just 5 screws and the whole cover comes off which is even better you smelly nostalgia fag
>>108731375hows the weather in new delhi?>>108731369spain
I have no clue what I'll swap to when my T480 kicks the bucket. Probably an AMD T14 I guess or a framework if the price is right.
>>108731050I don't have a problem with RAM being soldered, I think these days you'd probably upgrade the RAM and CPU at the same time anyway so if you can just replace the whole board that's okay. There can be a medium between making everything upgradeable and making nothing upgradeable
>>108731587>I don't have a problem with being scammed*
>>108730338>>108730351The battery being inside bothers me alot but the inside of these models look so clean.
>>108731677It doesn't bother me as it's still easy to replace if it goes bad. They're not glued in like in smartphones.Again, modern chips are much more power efficient and USB-C powerbanks are a thing, and are more versatile than dedicated bulky 18650 modules. There is no need for the old external batteries on ThinkPads anymore, and lunatics still clinging on their X220's depend on them because of their ancient Intel chips that had a batter life on two hours even on factory fresh batteries.
>>108729910I used to get paid to upgrade RAM and hard drives in old ass thinkpads. The face of the worker when I'd come back with their T400 and take away the T490 we gave them as a loaner... shit was so funny
>>108729928KEEEEEEK
>>108729988It's true. Replacing the screen was so satisfying. The way it just slotted in and then pushing in the little ribbon and installing a metric fuck ton of RAM and seeing how much of it was unused because they were on 32 bit windows, I used to cum in my pants
>>108730351What year did they start getting good? I have a 2021 thinkpad that cost about $3000 and I've used it a few times cause I thought it was shit
>>108731703I have a T430 and i'm proud to be a madman.
Why would anyone in their right mind spend twice as much to get all the old features back when the hardware is not worth keeping after 2-3 years?These changes were made so you and everyone else can get new laptops for cheaperThe savings are passed on to (You)(You) are the one benefiting here. The used thinkpads you buy? Someone had to throw them our or sell them away. These are Lenovo's real customers.You faggots keep on complaining but when someone comes up with a computer built the way you want barely anybody shows up to buy it>b-but the computer will depreciate in 2 years. why would i buy it?>b-but dell sells it for $600 bucks cheaper with the same performance. >i won't be able to use the upgradable RAM when DDR6 hits>having a removable battery is nice but hp sells theirs $300 cheaper and the battery capacity is actually 10% better>why would i pay that much when i could just get a used x270?>inb4 but it started out great, just look at the laptops of the pastYeah duh this shit started with rich mofos and professionals buying it. Over time it became a race to the bottom and the models that aggressively cut cost sold the most consistently.Nobody remembers IBM realizing this and tapping out? The netbook craze?There has been a push recently for less slopification of laptops but it hits against the reality of nobody is willing to pay more when everyone got so used to things costing less over the decades.>inb4 but silicon and the ramThis is about the markup companies put on top of the hardware so they can do R&D and shit. If they are sourcing 4:3 panels as opposed to 16:9, you bet your ass they are gonna have to pay out the ass.
>>108733096lenovo is removing the metal chassis from it's high-end laptops. the ones that start at thousands of dollars. it doesn't matter if you spend more for intel/amd laptops, they're all plastic crap from lenovo now.
you can literally just do that with a new thinkpad
>>108735552They don't have ultrabays so no you can't
>>108735588ive used x220 for like 5-10 years and i have no fucking clue what that is
>>108735598system that let you hotswap in batteries, hdd/sdd and dvd/blu-ray drives
>>108735633they had additional batteries until t480
>>108735638no blu-ray drives though
>>108735652that's a good thing
>>108735654No it's not
>>108735663well it is if you're not addicted to sucking big tech cock and aren't a faggot who doesnt torrent
>>108735664Enjoy your bit starved content fag
>>108735670i download bd remuxes from the ruskies you slave
>>108731703>two hours even on factory fresh batteries.My X230 gets 4-5 hours on a 6 cell eBay battery.
>>108730017Yeah, my mom's first and second laptops had those. I downloaded so much low-res hentai on one of those bad boys and kept an indexed collection on floppy disks. Flash drives were such a fucking game changer for teenage fapping.
>>108735875BSwhat brand? i'll buy it
>>108735984Actually it might not have been eBay, it's not in my purchase history. I don't remember where I got it. This is the battery though.
>>108736071i mean if it's oem... how woudl you even find it? unless you paid like $100 for it
>>108736132Different anon, but you can get OEM parts for cheap, even after the laptop company has discontinued the support.I ordered a battery from my local shop, don't know if it is available online as well.
>>108736301not where i live and most of them are almost dead
>>108729914Hello tranny sister
>>108729910>remember what they took from you98% of the posters here haven't even unscrewed the ram flap out of curiosity, it's just jerking off to the possibility of upgrading shit
>>108729910I remember what they gave me instead and suddenly it's not so bad
>>108730351>the legendary durability ended with IBMthe lenovo designed T60 was built noticeably better than the IBM pieces of shit of the T4x lineupT430 is the last classic thinkpad and it's fucking great for that
