Is there anyone who doesn't love thinkpads?
Because if they exist they're wrong

@troubleMoney before i got this specific model i just didn't know what was so special about them, other than being solid machines aimed more towards business work
now i'm pretty hooked on it, but take into account i only speak for this specific model, the 2007 x61t, and the earlier IBM forays (butterfly keyboard) look awesome, but i do think they're a bit overhyped in the foss community just because someone wrote a custom bios for it
@squirrel I like them because you can actually get into the damn things with a minimum of fuss, if you need to switch out a component it's a few screws and you're done rather than having to spend quarter of an hour prying the damn thing open
Also, really, really cheap second hand and solid enough you don't have to worry about it
@troubleMoney the Acer i use as my main laptop certainly loses points for build quality (the plastic screw holders already broke off from taking it apart one too many times) but i feel like most laptops (within a few years ago, I'm sure newer models keep you out) I've worked on were pretty reasonable to open, they just weren't as standardized as the thinkpad and also made compromises for thinness, which makes sense
@squirrel It might just be the ones I've worked on but most of them have been annoying as hell
Some of the new ones are even worse, I don't like it if I have to actually grab my toolkit rather than just use a leatherman to take stuff apart
