I'm looking to buy a new laptop for when I start university i September, and I stumbled upon this. The reviews are generally positive and I can afford to pay it. Should I?

Thinkpad or kys
Blake Rodriguez
get a Thinkpad if you want to do real work
if you want a Asus wait for the dual screen one
Jayden Bell
Install Gentoo on an SSD and put it in your old laptop
Luis Lopez
I haven't had good luck with the durability of Asus ultrabooks
actually, although its been a few years since I was in school, when I was I frequently found myself annoyed with the uncomfortable keyboard and tiny screen (in physical size, not resolution) and I often wished I'd gotten a 15" laptop instead of a 12/13" one.

No.
Get a x230 or a x220, best laptops for using at school or work. Of course no gaming on this two, since they arent made for that.
They are very(very) lightweight and the battery last though the day.
Dont forget to buy a ssd, they ae cheap.
Caleb Harris
Lenovo shitpads are trash
Lucas Collins
Id get a dell xps for winshit and lincucks or a macbook pro if you want a mac. Might be some other nice ultrabook out there
Joseph Nelson
x230/20 are best laptop ever, but after doing the fhd mod and the keyboard mod on x230. also the battery, even the larger one, dont do more than 6/7 hours.
i dont see him going trough all this, he's better with something newer like x250 or t450s.
Joseph Bailey
buy a macbook. easy to use and you won't have any problems.
Blake Cox
Used T470s
Bentley Johnson
Why are you buying new? What is the point of already going into debt? Better to buy a used business laptop from HP or Dell and then see where you stand when you get there. Ignore anyone who says a Lenovo or Apple products.
Jose Russell
And install OS X on it, for epic victory royale on Appletards *dabs*
Jose Johnson

You aren't even trying
Jaxon Evans
You can't programm iOS Apps on a WIndows or Linux notebook. Therefor you have to buy a mac.
Brayden Richardson
or you install OS X on a superior thinkpad.
enjoy giving blowjobs to your big black spacebar icuck
Henry Flores
Get a 2015 MacBook Pro full metal design, guaranteed support for years, aesthetic, great track pad and keyboard and around $500
David Gutierrez
You always need the newest version of mac os to code the apps.
Jaxon Williams
Not trying but stating a fact. Lenovo and Apple laptops are the worst when it comes to people going to school. HP and Dell used enterprise computers can come at 25% of the price of those shitty meme brands with very close to the same specs and vastly out perform anything sold to the public. *IF* they need something other than what they have they can then switch to once they know it.
Robert Lee
Just get a surface go
Hunter Rodriguez
Just buy an alienware laptop if you want to succeed
Brody Morgan
Can't you read???? You need a amc to code iOS apps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nolan Baker
Get Teclast F7 Plus or Teclast F15 from China.
Austin Baker
virtual machines son.
A fully upgraded/modded x230 its a beast.
If you know how to Hackintosh, just get a another ssd, and you can swap windows ssd to hackintosh ssd, since its easy to change drives.
Michael Diaz
BTFO
macs are vanilla as fuck intel machines, it doesn't take much for hackintosh devs to catch up. The hackintosh scene has been blowing up in the past years, since Applel keeps fucking up their computers.
Ryan Jones
Bait
Jonathan Scott
Get a ThinkPad, faggot
Christopher Diaz
Modern macbooks cant run vms for shit and even have problems running docker images.
Ethan Morgan
OP here, I almost forgot about this thread desu. This isn't bait, I need to update from my corelet inspiron that I've had for 5 years, and I'm studying computer science, so I need something that can last the 4 years I'm at university. Like I said, I have enough money to buy it, I'd happily go up to £1,000. I don't mind what I get, as long as it's not a HP or Lenovo bar Thinkpads because they've absolute dogshit.
Dominic Kelly
I'd advise looking for shops that offer student discounts. Got my Thinkpad dirt cheap.
