I have the surface laptop now, it's 180 as fuck. i'd go with that. |

Date: April 24th, 2018 3:28 PM Author: Know-it-all filthy dopamine state the only awkward thing IMO is that you can't really put it on your lap like a normal laptop. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958613&forum_id=2#35910392) |

Date: April 24th, 2018 3:32 PM Author: Know-it-all filthy dopamine state Absolutely. That said at home I still have a dock and an external keyboard/mouse. But I had that when I had a regular laptop too. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958613&forum_id=2#35910426) |

Date: April 24th, 2018 3:25 PM Author: Know-it-all filthy dopamine state I have a surface Pro i7 for work. I really like it. The only thing is that if you like to put it on your lap like a normal laptop then that won't work with the surface pro. It is really a tablet with a keyboard cover with laptop internals.
Build quality of the Surface line is really good. If I was buying for myself I'd get a Surface Book with the discrete Nvidia graphics. |

Date: April 25th, 2018 1:51 AM Author: Yellow motley half-breed goyim who needs an $1000 laptop (post-tax)? TP is the best pc, but in the end, it's still chinese garbage with a 1 yr depot warranty. i dont see the point of spending more than $500 on a laptop unless you need high-end performance (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958613&forum_id=2#35914329) |

Date: April 25th, 2018 1:53 AM Author: aphrodisiac nursing home police squad A comparable Macbook starts at $1,300; I use my laptop as my primary computer, on which I do work and watch (((media))). It's worth the investment. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958613&forum_id=2#35914350) |
|
Date: April 25th, 2018 1:55 AM Author: Yellow motley half-breed goyim both are unnecessary unless you are a rare user who needs high-end performance.
and tbf, at least the $1300 macbook holds its value much better than the $1000 thinkpad. |
|
Date: April 25th, 2018 9:34 AM Author: Chocolate flatulent azn Recently caved and bought $1500 MacBook for the wife. She uses it for work all the time, which is why she HAD to have something expensive. Work, in this instance, means email and some office docs. By the time we finish with all the accessories we may as well have set over $1000 on fire. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958613&forum_id=2#35915517) |
|
Date: April 25th, 2018 9:47 AM Author: Know-it-all filthy dopamine state To be fair, it is much higher quality than a $500 computer and will last much longer. Things like the keyboard and screen are much nicer too. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958613&forum_id=2#35915606) |
|
Date: April 25th, 2018 10:59 AM Author: Yellow motley half-breed goyim thinkpads have better keyboards than macs, and you can get a HD screen on a pc.
"last much longer" is mac flame. better to buy 3 $500 laptops than one $1500 one. |

""last much longer" is mac flame. better to buy 3 $500 laptops than one $1500 one."
It is not. Dealing with a laptop crash (or a dying laptop), buying a new laptop, setting it up is a PITA. I understand you're cheap and don't value your time/convenience at all, but if you did you would see why a better $1500 laptop that lasts 3x as long (or more) is cr. And I say this as someone who isn't all in on Apple. I have one MBP, one custom gaming laptop, a surface pro and wife has two thinkpads (one Yoga, one T series). |

|
Date: April 25th, 2018 2:06 PM Author: Know-it-all filthy dopamine state Sure, though with the number of viruses/malware in pirated software these days I've stopped doing that years ago. There's basically no reason to either since a bunch of shit is free or cheap. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3958613&forum_id=2#35917734) |

how is there viruses and malware? i get shit from torrents and it's fine. |
|
Date: April 25th, 2018 2:13 PM Author: Know-it-all filthy dopamine state You can get Office 365 for cheap and it includes a shit ton of cloud storage. There are cheap grey market keys on ebay.
Adobe - I don't really need pro.
All fun and games until you get some ransomware or money is missing from your bank account or whatever. |
|
Date: April 25th, 2018 2:18 PM Author: Yellow motley half-breed goyim how cheap is office 365?
i need lightroom and photoshop for photos.
|
|
Date: April 25th, 2018 2:21 PM Author: Know-it-all filthy dopamine state Check ebay and depends on if you want the family or personal licenses or individual or what.
For photoshop, I don't know since I don't use those. Check gray market for that too. Buying gray market keys won't get your system raped. |

tbf, xo hasnt come up with a credible $500 pc laptop itt. xo's alternative to a $1500 mac is a $1000 thinkpad. |
|
Date: April 25th, 2018 12:38 PM Author: Know-it-all filthy dopamine state Could she? Sure.
Will it be as nice? No. It'll have a shittier display, keyboard, last less, probably not have an SSD, low RAM, be made of cheap plastic instead of metal, etc. |
