Thoughts? The guy also made a C/Lisp OS inspired by Plan9 and Lisp machines. I like the trackball, I get tired of using the trackpoint, it fatigues my fingers.

Was it purposely made to look horrible?

Can it run Crysis?

Just use proper one.

Looks kinda neet desu but probably only for hobbyists

well shit, shut up and take my damn money, etc.
no wait, it looks like shit, cancel that
>trackball
could have made that an option, no? Not sure thats a winner in current year
Leo Martinez
Yes.

he doesn't even turn it on.
>nice design
Not even an autistic would use this. It's absolute shit. Who will 3D print their laptop's bezel when a newer used one is way cheaper and faster, and better than a shit trackball? What could you possibly do with this? Aside from the keyboard being mechanical (which has a shit layout) it's all refuse, my fucking free phone (with no contract) has a 1080p screen. LVDS works on every computer

This 3D printing meme has to fucking stop.
I mean, I can see parts of the case like the bezel being easier to make that way. But for fuck's sake, why would you print THE GODDAMN KEYS? WHAT IS THE POINT?
Eli Reyes

found the killer app for it

Proper keyset is $100+

Cheap keycaps are $15 and work equally fine
Eli Garcia
>Cheap keycaps are $15 and work equally fine
For low profile?
Also, enjoy your shine.
Christopher Morgan
imagine spending $100 on your star wars keycaps instead of buying a model m with keycaps which comes with a keyboard for less.
Logan Brown

Philistines.
> instead of buying a model m
Shitty overhyped keyboard. Literally a hobo version of model f.
> keycaps which comes with a keyboard for less.
If you like that profile, then more power to you.
Does it even use PBT or shitty cheapo ABS?
David Gutierrez
>no 4:3 option
Gabriel Jones
I don't know or care. I've used it for over 9 years and the caps are still antimicrobial and not shiny it was also $20. I have no need for a meme keyboard with keycaps that cost more than my heavy reliable POS KB.
Hunter Harris
Thinkpad T420 is 100 dollaroos, no thanks
Tyler Bailey
>I don't know or care
Not surprised.
It's an ok shitty keyboard if you are into that.
That said, you could have probably even find one for free in the dumpster.
Robert Rivera
Keyboard?
Kayden Sanders
Planck from olkb.com.
I'd recommend getting a split instead.

Where?
Nicholas Reyes
can it out perform this for 80 dollars
Joseph Fisher
?
bough a PBT DSA keycaps from aliexpress for 15$ and you get all keys not just the ones for the 60% layout
the laptopt doesn't look that bad for a DIY, you always can improve the design or build techniques, the thing that sucks is the hardware and screen.
Luke Roberts
trying this hard to feel superior for buying $100 keycaps
Samuel Lee
At least it’s cheaper then novena.
And has a real case.
And I do like plan9.
Still, it’s going to need to be cheaper than 700 bones.
Leo Rivera
No, but you also can't easily modify the X230. And no, "modding" it isn't being able to modify it.
Julian Anderson
It's like paying 100 dollars and hour for someone else to assemble garbage.
Ayden Foster
I respect the fact its not just a fucking raspberry pi in a box

The OS is cool, he's coming back to it sometime soon according to the associated IRC channel.
Hope to see it developed a bit more. The whole everything is a symbol in lisp and everything is a file in 9 combines into a really exciting set of abstractions at the lisp repl level.

a phone can do every thing a laptop can.
there hasn't been a good reason to buy a laptop for like 5years.

Use a normal keyboard with letters on the keys and a spacebar >:(

opo here and i know, posting from a $60 x60. but its not as ,hackable'
im never buying one lol, just curious about reactions
Lincoln Brooks
>Not sure thats a winner in current year
Why? It's just an input method.
Easton Perez
Why? It's my personal keyboard and I find it very convenient.
Will change to Levinson soon, though.
Ryan Allen
Keyboard looks shite, it should use a Thinkpad keyboard like the Novena.
