What laptop to buy? (discuss.tchncs.de)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by solaryth@discuss.tchncs.de to c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I'm in the market for a new laptop. Preferably under $2000 and have good specs. 16 GB ram minimum and 500 GB SSD minimum. What recommendations does Lemmy have? If more details are needed please specify what and I'll answer

EDIT: thank you everyone for the answers ๐Ÿ™‚ I do not need anymore suggestions

I find it amusing that some Lemmings are so fanboyish about computers that they'll downvote a recommendation for MacBooks. It reminds me of people talking shit about Xbox 360 vs PlayStation 3 in 2007.

I don't use them myself (can't stand OSX and unfortunately need Windows for my job) but I know plenty of developers who do and love them. And, like the Xbox 360 controllers from 2007, they're so solid you could beat the shit out of somebody with them. You'd have a hard time doing that with a ThinkPad or a DualShock 3!
