What laptops do you guys use to write?
My laptop is nothing special. An acer swift 3. Wouldn't recommend. It's okay, but if you're like me and go down rabbit holes, the thing just can't keep the tabs going. And my external hard drive is just a usb drive. 32gbs. I also periodically upload pdfs of my work to the cloud too.

Can someone tell me what’s with thinkpad and linux?
I can answer that. My previous laptop was an Acer Swift 3, and the fingerprint reader didn't have a Linux driver at all. It drove me nuts, and I did start to write a driver for it, but life stuff prevented me from doing that (and the fact that the manufacturer sucks ass in the documentation departme

Mechanical Engineering inquiry
You'd need a basic gpu to run solidworks. I had a acer swift 3 i5 10th gen with 2gb mx250 graphics card but solidworks still sucked on it. I could barely load large models and forget trying to do any aero mpdelling or CFD analysis on. Later upgraded to a legion pro 5i with 8gb 4060, overkill for sol

MacOS Sequoia on a MacBook Air 2017?
I have an M2 MacBook Air as my main driver and my M1 is currently on ice because I realized I could buy these i7 airs for $80-100 in good shape and wanted to see what I could do with them. I am planning to move one to my beach house and one to my mountain cabin to use as HTPC (I have mirrored NAS in

Thinkpad et son foutu clavier
Backmarket, 1600 euros. L'ordi est sorti en 2023, je l'ai acheté il y a 1 semaine. 32go de ram, 1TO. Plutôt curieuse de voir que tu trouves pas au dessus de 800 euros, tu es sur quel site? C'est une marque que j'aurais placé dans les plus chères. Après, ça a peut-être du jouer, je vise des ordinateu

Laptops for students
I have had an Acer Swift 3 (Acer Swift SF314-54 ) for about 6 years and I hate it so much for linux because the firmware support sucks and so the laptop cannot turn off or sometimes cannot wake from sleep. So I'm surprised to see an Acer on your list. However, other than the firmware problem (which
