Use better spelling?

I'll say it: Get a Lenovo Thinkpad. Do you have a reason for Apple other than some facetious argument involving somehow superior build quality? Also, you'll get both Windows and Linux natively and they don't feel like second-class citizens.

- quink 14y agoThere's a hundred Thinkpads on the ISS right now, and zero MacBooks. There's a data point. And if you're concerned about useful life, then I can tell you right now that you'll get major OS updates for about three years. Windows 8 requires basically a good graphics card, 2 GB of RAM, a dozen GB of space and a 1 GHz CPU. It'll run on your 2005 Celeron as well as Vista did. May not have been well, but a 2006 PC will, on average, run Windows 7 well enough. Meanwhile, in Appleland, the Mac you bought in February '09 won't run the next version of OS X that's just about to come out. Seriously.
- aitoehigie 14y agoI am not really concerned about the OS as I am a Linux person. I am just really concerned about build quality and performance.
