All plastic laptop bodies have a metal frame which tells you how much they have faith in their body construction.

- IE6 5y agoI get that you don't like thinkpads but you don't really seem like you understand how they are built or why they are perceived as durable.
- jason0597 5y agoBy that logic, civil engineers show how little faith they have in their buildings by having a reinforced concrete support and glass/steel frames around them
- gabereiser 5y agoNot the buildings, they have little faith in the structural strength of poured concrete which is why they use rebar. It increases the strength to tolerable levels so they can build what they want to build. So yeah. Civil engineers know the properties of the materials they work with. So should hardware engineers. I'm aware they all have metal frames. I'm also aware that some aluminum laptops incorporate the frame into the lattice structure the motherboard sits on. I like when engineers find ways of using the materials to their strengths (aluminum laptop) vs having to strengthen (plastic) or support (carbon fiber).
