<@macdjord>
I'm in the market for a new laptop and seek advice. Considerations:
04:02
<@macdjord>
* I'm in Canada and would like to take advantages of Xmas/Boxing Day sales
04:02
<@macdjord>
* Weight & size not a primary concern
04:02
<@macdjord>
* Durable - current laptop is 7 years old and only being replaced because it it physically dieing
04:02
<@macdjord>
* 1 TB main disk required; small (64GB is plenty) SSD boot disk
04:02
<@macdjord>
* 8+ GB RAM
04:02
<@macdjord>
* A graphics card. Not nessisarily a good one, but should have one.
04:02
<@macdjord>
* Price range up to $1000 - more would require a Very Good Reason

macdjord: I am extremely happy with my Lenovo T550 and it ticks all* those boxes except, I think, the price
12:44
<&ToxicFrog>
* although for the SSD it's much more cost effective to buy it without and then add an aftermarket M.2 2242 drive)
12:45
<&ToxicFrog>
It's also extremely easy to work inside and/or get replacement parts for (as I found out when the toddlebot pried off and destroyed one of the keycaps)
12:46
<&ToxicFrog>
The T450 should have similar capabilities (slightly smaller, no number pad) at a lower price, I think
12:48
<&ToxicFrog>
Oh, it looks like the Tx50 is obsolete and has been replaced with the Tx60; prices seem to be in the $1100-$1200 range with the boxing day sale
12:51
<&ToxicFrog>
macdjord: if you know an intermediary in the US who can take shipping for you, you could get some unreasonably good deals from Lenovo Outlet: http://outlet.lenovo.com/outlet_us/laptops/#facet-1=1,2,3,4&facet-3=14&facet-9=6 ,8,10,14,15
12:51
<&ToxicFrog>
But they don't sell or ship to Canada directly :(

The name made me think of some sort of lawyer app for defending yourself.

"It looks as though you are implicating yourself with your statement. Would you like me to fix the pronouns?"

<~Vornicus>

I still have ~16 days of aoc to catch up on
22:14
<&ToxicFrog>
so I won't be sad for a while yet
22:15
< catadroid>
And sadly you won't have much of a chance to for a couple weeks :p
22:17
<&ToxicFrog>
catadroid: I figure there's going to be at least some occasions when you and symbol are otherwise occupied :P
22:41
<&jeroud>
Vornicus: There's still 2015 unless you've done those already.
22:48
< catadroid>
Haha perhaps :p
