Anyone here use a Mac and another computer running another OS? How is it?
I have a T430 with both W10 and Arch Linux.
I want to get another laptop for Uni and carrying it around (as I use public transport) so it must be as light as possible. I was thinking on getting an X220 / X230 but I also feel attracted for a 2011 Macbook Air. Never used a Mac before though.
What do you guys think?
you'd get all the girls with a mac
But Jow Forums says macs are for faggots
why 2011 macbook and not the newer model?
Forgot to mention I'm poor as fuck and computers are pretty expensive where I live. I'd pay $460 USD for that 2011 Macbook, for example.
>mfw
>I'm poor as fuck
then why are you buying a macbook?
I would not buy a new Macbook.
However I can afford this $460 USD 2011 macbook.
what is the the specs of the used macbook? because with $460 you can definitely get new non-macbook laptop
>macshit
Found your problem.
i like older mac shit but the new stuff seems like garbage. idk just get what you like

>i5 1.7 GHz
>4Gb DDR3
>120Gb SSD
>HD 4000
>supoposedly the battery still lasts around 5hrs
on the other hand, the X230 I have my eye on:
>i5 2.6GHz
>4Gb DDR3
>HD 3000
>2hrs battery
$270 USD
>implying this happens
Get the mac, OP
$270 for x230? you are getting ripped off
>not running three OSes on your macbook pro
get on my level
Like I said: I don't live in the US. Computers are fucking expensive over here.
/g is a lie my friend
>you'd get all the gay bros with a mac
FTFY
I'm guessing the x230 is probably heavier then the macbook? I guess if you're happy with the macbook specs and weight, you do you.
>t. mactoddler in denial
>mac
Never again.
The battery life really calls me but I'm not sure.
As always there are people calling against the macbook, I'm usually one of them, honestly. So I'm kind of already leaning towards the x230.
why does apple live rent free in your mind?
That was fixed with an update.
Thanks for repeating the lie again street shitter! 2 rupees have been deposited to your Apple toilet fund.
got a macbook air, hasn't missed a beat in 3 years, doesn't slow down, easy to update, taken it camping in the desert for months, spilled beer on it, dropped it on concrete from a meter, still working just as good as it did when I first got it.
2 rupees have been deposited in your loo iPajeet.
>Imagine being so much of a poorfag that you feel the need to show off your worthless silver coins
>silver
Poorfags are so fucking cringe
I'd go for a dell xps - they are light & fairly well priced. Linux can be a bit of a bitch to set up but well worth it imo. Or get a mac if you're after some boipussy
>an iPajeet poorfag actually trying to show off $200 in silver coins
Go buy a fucking toilet with that street shitter. LMAO
just get an x220 and install macOS there if you want to explore your gay side
But the wireless card on Thinkpads are not compatible with OSX
angry pajeets
>buy $5 dell dw1510
that was hard
I got a mbp 2015 and a gayman/windows desktop. It's excellent because you can laugh at everyone else lugging their massive laptops around and plugging it in as soon as they start it up XD
>t430
why are you complaining? Get a t430s
The T430 is bulky and heavy as fuck.
>T430S
The S is for slim.
didnt ivy bridge came out in 2012? the HD 4000 is part of it
Hi OP this is my 2011 macbook air with a 512gb nvme in it and new battery. It does not have macOS on it only grub/debian/swap. I have win 10 in a VM. It is perfect. I cycle around with it everday and i havent put a dint in it. it is perfection and if i want to do some media transcodes then thats what my Xeon is for at home.
Unless you need macOS for something, I just got a used xps 13 to run Linux on and it’s very comfy. New mbps seem like shit
