ofc I imediatly upgraded it from winxp to gnu/linux
I’m new to Linux; what’s with the ThinkPad hype?
They’re reliable, good quality, have amazing keyboards, and work well with Linux (some even support Libreboot).

Idk my T460 is fine on arch. I honestly feel like the ThinkBooks are the nasty ones and even the newer thinkpads are alright.

makes me think of the good ol’t times when the air was cleaner, roads were safer and our bosses used to pay us in Thinkpads, not this “fiat money” nonsense.

Very cool. I love those IBM Thinkpads.
Fuck lenovothe older lenovo models aren’t bad, but the shit they pump out recently is well, shit
They had a Chinese back door in the firmware. Don’t know if that’s still the case. https://www.techworm.net/2015/08/lenovo-pcs-and-laptops-seem-to-have-a-bios-level-backdoor.html They’ve had several major (intentional) security flaws over the years. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenovo They had a modified UEFI that allows insecure execution of EXEs. The Lenovo laptops given to US military in Iraq had keyloggers that sent all inputs back to China.
I wish someone randomly gifted me a thinkpad as well
