ITT hardware /g/ used to love but completely forgot about by now
I already see the board slowly moving on from classic Thinkpads. Really weird to witness.
>>110284832Probably because they can't run any modern OSes smoothly except maybe antiX.
that maus is older than most of the posters on /g/
>>110284859>the window manager is the OS
>>110284881It's a distro retardhttps://antixlinux.com/
>>110284832Windows is just that shit now. ThinkPad was supposed to be the thinker's Windows machine.
>>110284946huh? since when /g/ switched from guro to tech it was always about putting some esoteric lunix on stinkpads
>>110284946and Arch is swiss cheese vibecoded garbage
>>110284973*dick cheeseit's a neckbeard os after all
>>110284832>>110284859this. Modern ThinkPads are hot garbage.
>>110284859A T420 runs most Linux distros just fine
>>110284828
>>110286829that brings back memories
>>110284828Eww, that one has too many buttons.
I'm pretty sure this is the only HP hardware I ever loved. Had to buy it to replace the shitty 7000 series one.
>>110284828>silver reissueI'm still using the original cream colored one.
>>110284859You do realize that the problem isn't the laptop tho, right?It's a society problem, not a hardware problem
>>110291685>It's a society problem, not a hardware problemtrvke nvkem
>>110284828Shell on mine broke, but it still lives on as replacement switches for the cut-rate ones in my kensington orbit.>>110284939>anti-x>uses X by default>"Proudly anti-fascist">releases named after holocaust survivorsdoin a big think on this one
>>110287532Mine only went out like 1-2 years ago, so lasted for like 2 decades. It's just clicky feedback thing, so I fix it even. Legendary mouse.Absolutely hate what we currently got. All mouses are just air and plastic formed like a tiny soapbar that gives you cramps.
>>110287635>poorfag spec
>>110284828that's not the intellimouse explorer 3.0. that's probably 1.0 version or something.
>>110288880>I'm pretty sure this is the only HP hardware I ever loved.Most likely because it was made by someone else internally since HP was just the branding
>>110292904Lucky you. My MX518 only lasted 4-5 years before getting the famous cable disconnect thing.
>>110287635I remember the flamewars between the WMO and IE3.0 on quake forums. Good times.
>>110284828Dell Vostros come to mind? I think Mental Outlaw even talked about them once (It could've been a different Dell sub-brand though)
>>110284828The most amazing thing about this piece of hardware is that it doesn't have that rubberized garbage on it, so it's nice to use 20 years later.Seriously fuck anything rubberized, it's like someone saw a garish blue power LED and said "hold my beer"
>>110287532They semi recently rereleased this. I was fortunate enough to get one when I was mouse shopping, now folks are scalping them of course but it is still a great mouse. Want a backup
>>110284828Enter. I think Black & White was the only game to support haptic feedback, though.
