Buy an x201 for 80 dollars
Get the motherboard mod from 51b chinks
Now you have the perks of the retro thinkpad design with new hardware
Get an ssd and 32 gigs ram and maybe an egpu if u like games
Also buy a better display and use sandpaper to shrink the bezzels
This is the path im going down anyway
Julian Moore
you retard. go buy a MacBook Pro 15. if it goes over budget add some of your own money. its by far the best laptop and you can add your meme egpu through thunderbolt 3 later

you can have windows on a bootcamp partition. macOS is way fucking better than shit windows

Lol dont listen to these fgts, they’re memeing
Macbooks are really shit
>stupedly overpriced
>everything is soldered, proprietary storage so your getting assfucked on price. if ur mac breaks, too bad fuck you, you just lost all your data
>shitty cooling, cant even handle stock speeds let alone boost speeds
>no usb, no hdmi, no mini dp
>shitty gpu, comparable to the lowest end nvidia mx 150/gt 1030
>very short key travel on keyboard, like typing on a touchscreen also no function keys
>likelier to get nigged, also everyone in the room knows your a fagot
>mac os is fucking retarded and everything runs 50% slower due to shitty optimisation
Older thinkpads are best imo, especially with newer cpu replacements
Other than that you could get surface book 2 or xps
Cameron Howard
whatever you get, make sure is a brand new laptop.
don't fall for the used memepad/shitbook meme, new machine is always better than any old ass laptop

Get the aero 15, it's pretty much the xps 15 but with a better panel and gpu. Get it from here with the conductonaut for 1 cent so thermals will never be an issue.

Clevos are great in their own right, but they tend to have bad battery life and the same lg panel they keep using is a bit outdated. They're great if you're wanting to exclusively game, but they aren't quite for professionals.

T480 is a very good machine. A few coworkers have them at work, they're fantastic. The hate for the newer thinkpad keyboard design is unjustified imo, they're just as nice but more rugged and quieter.

>waah UwU
>waah OwO
>Price
1) company pays for it
>Maintainance
2) if you have an issue with your computer, take it to the IT department. why the fuck do you care whether it's soldered or not
>Keyboards
3) apple has the best fucking keyboards
>Power
4) you don't play fucking fortnite on your company computer. it needs to run your desired jetbrains flavor and that's it.
>Data loss
5) git the fuck off this board.
