Oh really. WHAT ABOUT THE THINKPAD X200S??

[techtimechronicles24]

🇺🇲 Explore the fascinating journey of the iconic ThinkPad! Originally introduced by IBM in 1992, the ThinkPad quickly became synonymous with innovation, reliability, and cutting-edge technology.

💼 Designed for professionals on the go, the ThinkPad's signature black design, red TrackPoint, and durable build set it apart from the competition. ThinkPad was initially developed by a team led by Arimasa Naitoh, who drew inspiration from the traditional Japanese bento box for its design.

💻 Over the years, the ThinkPad underwent several transformations, adapting to the ever-changing landscape of technology. From the classic clamshell design to convertible tablets and ultrabooks, each iteration pushed the boundaries of what a laptop could achieve. The butterfly keyboard introduced on the ThinkPad 701C in 1995 was named one of the "25 Greatest PCs of All Time" by PC World.

🚀 Since the early 2000s, ThinkPads have been a trusted companion for astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS). ThinkPads have been instrumental in assisting astronauts with various tasks onboard the ISS, including data analysis, communication with mission control, and conducting scientific experiments.

💾 Despite changing hands from IBM to Lenovo in 2005, the ThinkPad's commitment to quality and innovation remained unwavering. Under Lenovo's stewardship, it continued to thrive, evolving with the times while staying true to its heritage.The iconic red TrackPoint remains a staple feature across generations, beloved by users for its precision and ease of use.

🌟 Today, the ThinkPad remains a symbol of excellence in the world of computing, beloved by professionals and enthusiasts alike for its reliability, performance, and timeless design. From business executives to tech enthusiasts, it became the go-to choice for anyone seeking performance and versatility.

Tag 21: IBM ThinkPad - die beste Tastatur der Welt?

Was ist eurer Meinung nach die beste Laptop-Tastatur der Welt? Ich bin der Meinung, dass das ThinkPad diesen Titel erhalten kann. Egal, ob von IBM oder Lenovo. Diese Tastaturen sind die besten.

Der einundzwanzigste Beitrag in meiner Reihe von Beiträgen zur Neugestaltung der Ausstellung in meinem Computermuseum. Heute und an weiteren 12 Tagen stelle ich die Zusammenstellung meiner Ausstellungsstücke vor. Welche Laptop-Tastatur ist wohl die beste Tastatur der Welt? Meiner Meinung nach ist es die von IBMs ThinkPad-Reihe. Und viele andere zufriedene Nutzer würden dem Urteil auch zustimmen.…

One of the key reasons I prefer ThinkPads is that the little TrackPoint ClitMouse is one of the only pointing methods I'd still be able to use if I was shrunken down to legoman size. Trackpads, mice, touch screens, styluses? No way, not if you're tiny. But that little red joystick? I figure I could manage it.

And part of my brain has been asking the question of "how could I use this thing if I got shranked all tiny?" since 1989, when I saw Honey, I Shrunk The Kids.

who else maps caps lock to something else, I just mapped it to the super key on my main laptop because that's what google does with their chromebooks and I like it just as much as I like the trackpoints on thinkpads.

[lenovo-real]

where is the thinkpad, WHERE IS THE THINKPAD!!!!!

oh hey an N23 shitbook!

and that's a macbook pro 9,2 (apple took our thinkpads and put them in a macbook chassis with their keyboard, but there's no trackpoint ;-;)

and the macbook pro 9,2 is a fully upgradeable laptop (because apple literally took our thinkpads and dressed them in apple clothing but HOLY SHIT UPGRADEABLE MACBOOK!!?!?!?!??)

the cherry on top is they both run ARCH LINUX!!!!!!!!

It is now Trashed TransNote Thursday

It may not have been the worst laptop ever made, but it sure is now.

It does not boot. The external dock/digitizer pad is missing. The up arrow key and the trackpoint nub is missing. The flaking black coating on the bezel had been repaired with... black nail polish? And it smells like it has been sitting in a closet in a smokers' house for the last 20 years. But despite everything, it's a TransNote.

Supervising some trainees at work and, god, the generational divide really is widening between me and the kids™. I've never seen anybody use their fingers on a touch screen laptop instead of trackpoint, trackpad, or mouse this much.

Hello!

Hi everyone!! I'm @sway-official, the totally official and real blog for the sway wayland compositor, blessed by Simon Ser himself. If you're going to refer to me I prefer she/her pronouns, but to be honest any work.

I use Sway, but I love all distros and desktops equally. Except for GNOME

[wifkin]
