As a proud owner of the Intel option, I sincerely glad that you have.

Also it hurts and I hate you

[-] Maerman@lemmy.ml 12 points 3 months ago

Why, is the Intel option sub-par? I just got the AMD version because my older laptop has NVIDIA hybrid graphics, which is a serious pain in the ass on Linux. I also wanted to play with Wayland. But why do you dislike the Intel version?

[-] humbletightband@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 3 months ago

Mainly because of poor performance, especially in emulators

[-] Maerman@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

Ah, that's unfortunate. I haven't really had a chance to push this machine very much, so I can't say from experience whether it's really better.

[-] CucumberFetish@lemm.ee 12 points 3 months ago

What are the specs?

[-] jonne@infosec.pub 13 points 3 months ago

It's got gills.

[-] exanime 8 points 3 months ago

But is it packed to the gills?

they put the ice all the way up there

[-] Maerman@lemmy.ml 8 points 3 months ago

I really want to reply to this post sincerely, but that other reply just takes the cake.

[-] words_number@programming.dev 7 points 3 months ago

Would buy an AMD based T14s or T14 but they removed the rj45 connector from them and I won't pay that money for a childrens toy. For some reason, some intel models still have it. Why??

[-] Fiivemacs@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 months ago

Could be worse, they could solder ram to the motherboard. Oh wait...

[-] Maerman@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 months ago

That is very strange. I wonder how that decision got made. But funnily enough, that is the exact reason I went for the T16 over the Z16, which was priced similarly during the sale I took advantage of for this. I could have swallowed the lack of USB-A ports, because docks are not that expensive where I live, but for fuck's sake. Give me rj45 or give me death.

[-] emergencyfood@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

I believe the L series still has them. Also replaceable RAM.

Congration

Hey congrats dude. Hope it will improve your life and that you'll have fun with it.

[-] Maerman@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Thanks. I'm already having so much fun. My older laptop has NVIDIA hybrid graphics, so I was actually a bit flabbergasted at how little I had to do to get Linux working properly on this thing.

[-] M500@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

That’s awesome! I have a second gen l14 and it’s such a great machine. I’m sure the t16 is a whole other level.

[-] Maerman@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

Nice, I'm happy that you enjoy your machine. I hope it continues to bring you joy for years to come.

[-] mySFWaccount@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago

I'm reading this jealously from an E16.

[-] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

neato burrito!

[-] st3ph3n@midwest.social 1 points 3 months ago

Ayy, I have a Ryzen 7 based T14 Gen2. Wonderful machine. Enjoy!

[-] Maerman@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Thank you; I am enjoying it very much so far. It blows my 5-year-old Acer Nitro 5 out of the water. I hope you enjoy yours too.
