WHY IS IT SO FUCKING HARD TO FIND A GOOD LAPTOP???
>TRIED A MACBOOK, IT WAS OVERPRICED AS SHIT AND BROKE
>TRIED A HUAWEI, THE FAN SOUNDS LIKE A JET ENGINE
>TRIED AN MSI """"GAMING"""" PC, IT BLUE-SCREENED FROM WORD
WHAT THE FUCK IS A GOOD LAPTOP TO BUY NOW??
WHY DOESN'T Jow Forums HAVE A LAPTOP GENERAL WITH RECOMMENDATIONS???
Don't get a gaming laptop retard.
Get a thinkpad >>/tpg/
shut up faggot
Thinkpad X230
/thread
the last good laptop was the envy 133 before hp destroyed a once great brand voodoopc
>buys a bunch of literal shit
>surprised when it's shit
wooooooooooooooooooooow
What do you want to do with it?
Honestly, with the way things are going, just get a bendPro (iPad Pro) or a Surface Pro
buy a thinkpad
install gentoo
I've just convinced my dad to buy pic related. Would you say this was a good purchase for a literal 60yo Boomer who does no gayming and just needs it for office stuff?
>$550 USD
>Comes with a one year warranty
>He wanted to buy brand new and from a well known brand only, those were his conditions. He doesn't trust custom builts and I don't have time to build a laptop for him desu
>Computers in my country are somewhat expensive, shitty 4GB Asus laptops and Acers with a 4th gen intel i5 were being sold at the same price
Did I do well bros?
A9 9425 with 4gb? Fuck no. I bought one on clearance here in the states for about 250USD and returned it two days later. Completely inadequate specifications for running Windows.
Excuse me 8gb. You'll have very mediocre user experience.
mine is great by it

x220.
It's what I'm using right now and it's awesome.
That sucks.
I was thinking of putting LTSC on it or at least try and debloat it a bit.
why not look into getting him a chromebook? They are decent if he can do everything from a browser and use google docs for his office purposes. Of course if he needs legitimate office (from how you're describing him this doesn't sound like it's the case) the chromebook wouldn't be such a good idea.
Get a Thinkpad T420
>it broke
>too loud
>i returned a PC because it crashed once
You're a fucking brainlet.
>AMD A-series
ya dun goofed
xps or x1 carbon
This or T420
The A10-9720p is pretty decent...almost pentium level performance.
you can't upgrade the cpu on a x series laptop. Get a t430 instead.
based, this
All I want is a laptop that's:
>Quiet
>Good for school-work and music editing
>Can run some casual games
Is that so impossible?
t430s master race
Weird, my MSI gayming PC from 2012 still works flawlessly
