Seeing Windows on a Thinkpad feels weird. I better go back to Unixporn to feel better.
- My thoughts exactly... Where are the tiling WMs?
  
  Arch+sway my beloved
  
  As an Arch + Hyprland Thinkpad user seeing a beautiful Thinkpad being ruined by Windows hurts. Free them from their Microsoft prison already.
  
  I don’t even use windows anymore apart from my work laptop, where I can’t install stuff on my own anyway, but that still made me look up options for tiling window managers on windows rn. (Tiling windows managers amiright)
- Maybe it's my age, but I've only ever known IBMs as DOS and Windows machines.
  
  They sold Thinkpad to Lenovo years and years ago.
- What about hackintosh on a thinkpad?
thats a cool coverup/origin story for your thinkpad collection
- Yeah I don't expect there are many tech employees working with Windows Thinkpads.
  
  I worked for one of the biggest tech companies in the UK, we used Thinkpads for our dev work. They're solid machines with good specs and excellent warranties. Big companies love them.
  
  The X1 Carbon is one of the best developer laptops there is, but I would never tarnish one with Windows
  
  Mostly finance guys…
  
  you would be surprised... i cannot use linux and have a thinkpad assigned. i need to change company...
  
  i work at a tech company and everyone here runs company mandated windows on their company thinkpads
Wheres the tiling WMs? Wheres the fastfetch? Wheres the cool looking rice? Wheres the programming socks? Wheres the obligatory Blåhaj?
- It's unethical to keep a ThinkPad in the conditions on display in the photo
  
  All Thinkpads (even the lower quality and less upgradable newer ones) deserve a loving Linux Transfem :3
TwinkPad the best bait to kidnap the queers(TM)
- You could totally kidnap me if you offered me a x220
  
  dude 100%
“I’m looking for a man in finance”
I don’t see any MacBook Pros. I assume the tech guys work in SaaS.
Does that make you a laptoprostitute?
...hey wait a sec, I think I see my laptop in there!
Had to check this wasn't a LinkedIn post.
