Hi all.
as i already wrote, thinkpad is x and t series... other one are not worth
looking at, Its my own personal opinion without exact technical background.
but had opportunities to see many of these after 5-8 years of use. only X
and T series looked good if we do not mind scratches and crashes
I am glad that stinkpad argument is settled . How about discussing
OpenBSD? I find that codeblocks core dumps every time . Would it dump
less on Asus? Cause it dumps a lot on my Lenovo VM.

thinkpads have poor hardware quality.
You must have been buying the cheap models which are.. well cheap

So you asked what not to buy. You got some good and solid advice from
knowledgeable people here regarding what works great including
OpenBSD coverage.

I'm really happy with my old netbook though. Guess what everything
worked on it except wifi. So I put trust into the same brand, and it
has bitten me. X won't work, the intel drm driver doesn't work.
I got more luck since I checked the technical specs before purchase.
Everything worked on
Can you take your fight elsewhere?
FWIW, about 5 years ago, my wife bought me a Toshiba NB305 that came with
Windows 7 Starter, which I tried to use. I'm okay with Windows when I need
to use it, but Starter edition might as well be a Windows kernel with IE
and almost no customization available. I do need Windows to program my ham
You not even refuted my primary point.
Your primary point is interjecting threads with contradictory comments
for the opportunity to snap at somebody which really irritates all
sides.
Also you oppose qualified advise many would want to hear with your own
suggestion. This may confuse somebody
Yes, you need engineering degree, and you need to spend some time in a
PCB factory, and common sense.
And you need to read service manuals for hardware that you know before
you buy it and start whining around or annoy everyone with your
dissatisfaction towards something.
So, ok, I need to

Why are you advocating for this company, dude?
You are again looking to contradict somebody, but that's pointless.
I don't need a egineering degree to know when a hardware is shit.

I am using an X220 and it is working wonderfully. Great battery life.
Solid performance compiling large projects like Open JDK. I upgraded

minutes with a screwdriver.

Hi,
I'm considering buying a new netbook (currently I have an October 2012 Acer
Aspire One). If at all I'd like to stay with Acer but not necessarily. I'm
worried about UEFI secure boot on these netbooks. Is there any Acer models
that I definitely should not buy?
