Post ITT to complain about the largest Chinese personal computer oem manufacturer leanovo (their new craptops make the appel mac book air look fat, get it) ruining * Bemoan the loss of the clamshell display bezel, so now your laptop can't fit inside the screen anymore * Cry yospos a river over the new and redesigned roll cage (what do you mean my laptop is not supposed to be used as a hammer?) * Rage about the loss of the thinklight, the only computer integrated reading light * * Call for the murder of every keyboard designer except for one (any one) * Educate the brainless masses about how they flipped the Thinkpad logo and added a red LED to pander to the lowest common denominator * 7th row for Home/End/Insert/Del/PgUp/PgDwn * Pictured: The Devil Incarnate and now they couldn't even reintroduce the buttons right~ Mr Dog posted:http://who-t.blogspot.com.au/2015/01/lenovos-x1-carbon-3rd-touchpad-woes.html oh and the pc is dead long live the tablet pc~~~ suck my woke dick fucked around with this message at 17:12 on Jan 31, 2015 |

maniacdevnull posted:i actually like the clickpad i actually bought a used t430s instead of a t440s because I hate the implementation of the trackpoint button clickpad on our lab's neverending supply of l540s so much that said the implementation of trackpoint buttons on the clickpad is only sort of awkward and not completely unuseable so i could have been way more terrible so if you're not a trackpoint purist it's probably ok suck my woke dick fucked around with this message at 17:24 on Jan 31, 2015 |

yeah when i last bought a laptop i specifically picked a lenovo model that had a clitless keyboard, then below it a touchpad, then below that two touchpad buttons. they had a bunch of other models with other configurations and they were all dumb

We've been rolling out Thinkpads for years and I agree, the x201 was the last good one. Even then the x200/201 had problems. I had a lot of them end up with bad fans which also meant the mobo might have a problem. I really didn't like the touchpad on the x201. Unfortunately they made it worse on the x220. x230 started using the poo poo keyboards. The x240 is just bad in every way. I have one sitting right here on my desk and I hate it. Personally, my favorite x-series is the x60 or x61. Small, compact, no gimmicks. It's just a goddamn laptop. I'd love to see a Thinkpad that size but with modern guts.

i have an ideapad and when you use the scroll area on the trackpad and lift your finger off it's 50/50 if the screen will continue to scroll or not other than that the trackpad is piss garbage

I have a t440s for work. the trackpad is unbelievably bad. like the bottom right corner is always right click and you can not disable that. it's the WORST.

actually on my w540, if you end up without the specific drivers (such as in windows recovery) you can only click in the bottom left corner even though the whole touchpad clicks down. if you try to click anywhere else it just won't register. lol

the t440 series was when lenovo tried to make a macbook. Obviously, they had to reduce their quality down to Apple levels to do that, but that's not really what I want in a computer.
