Most useless premium laptop feature: touch screen.

For my new Lenovo I saved hundreds of dollars because I opted for the second best screen option. Lower resolution WQXGA (2560 x 1600) 165Hz, beacuse the 4K touch enabled fancy schmancy screen of my current Dell XPS 15 has barely been used. I keep Outlook open on it FFS, and I can probably count on one hand the number of times I have used the touch feature 😖

Is it just me?

Does anyone of you own a Microsoft Surface?

What are your thoughts on Surface vs. Mac.

For my next laptop upgrade, I am thinking to invest in a decent one which lasts of half a decade or longer.

Mac is surely out of question.

Have had terrible experience with Lenovo and Sony. Don't quite like HP or others.

Remaining options are Surface or Dell.

What laptop do you use for your Linux work machine? My Lenovo is dying after just 6 months.

Hey guys,
I was wondering what setup (especially laptop/tower) you would use for coding at work it you could chose freely (I know some of you can).
I like the Lenovo thinkpads and like to have at least 16gb of ram (32 are better) and some powerful cpu like an i7. Usb type c, power delivery and useful Linux driver support are must-have.

How about you?

I finally got my new home server.
A Lenovo ThinkCentre M720q in one of the higher configurations.
Any ideas what top level OS I should put on it?
ATM, I'm thinking Proxmox, ESX or Alpine.
I like proxmox because of the neat UI for everything but I'm kinda worried about how it basically takes the most important parts of the system over.
I like Alpine since I already use it for quite a while as my goto server OS and because of AWALL, which IMHO is the best linux server firewall.
I didn't get to evaluate ESX yet.

Is Lenovo still the king of battery life laptops or have they been dethroned
