get a thinkpad nigger

Unironically, I'm going to buy a Dell XPS if I ever get money.

I don't support Apple or used stinky thinkpads.

Trve, I got one for 1/3 of the price of that, battery can last 6 hours with some use, probably enough to last you through a day of courses. Since you usually have some labs as well mixed in, you can charge it there.

>However it has over 8GB of RAM. Do I need 16GB of RAM for my College work? More specifically for Computer Science
It could make you optimize your code working with weaker hardware

Macbooks are a very bad idea. Get a thinkpad instead

>>28838
what about a thinkpad with a arm chip aparently the sd gen 3 one has 28 hours battery life but since its a new thinkpad i doubt u can replace the ram etc

Don't become an applejeet

Can only speak for Australia, it's literally only $100 more to get an M4 ipad Air with significantly more RAM. Apple has ported all their production software over to a sub based model which is designed to work on both iPads and Macs. Unironically you've got a significantly better value proposition with an iPad (even an older M3 model).

The Neo is essentially just an updated iPhone bound to 8GB of unified memory (which means it's doing everything). With the way that Apple has MacOS with AIslop integration you're going to really appreciate having the extra memory + you're getting one of the better digital art pads as a bonus if you're into that kinda thing…

Otherwise if you're just writing documents/word presentations you'll save about $500 getting a T14 Gen 2 (or better) and have a more powerful device.

u can get a used snapdragon thinkpad i found a listing on ebay for under 500 which is comparable to the macbook neo but id rather just buy a older used thinkpad and put a extended battery

>>28844
So you're saying a T14 gen 2 should be 250 USD/350 AUD?
Then I really lucked out on mine, got a 1135g7 model, 16/256gb for 200 USD/280 AUD

>>28857
T14 gen 2 refers to a model of Thinkpad laptop. 1135g7 refers to the processor (i5 1135g7)
