how the gently caress are you supposed to right-click a thing in the start menu in windows 10 and run as a different user. why did they get rid of that.

Phoenixan posted:actually considering getting one if apple replaces the function keys with a touchbar like rumored lol ahahahaha yeah let's do that one pants-on-head retarded thing that Lenovo did with their flagship ~*ultrabooks*~ for one generation and then hastily reverted (I'd replace mine on account of this except if I'm going to drop four and a half figgies on a laptop then I'm going to suffer this loving thing for at least three years before replacing it and right now I'm almost two years deep. That capacitive touch strip and the 8GB of RAM aside though everything else about this laptop is great. Maybe a microSD slot might have been nice?) They could at least emulate the good innovations on that thing, like turning Caps Lock into a vertically split Home/End key pair. Or they could even go one step beyond and just not have a right Shift key and instead have the arrow keys not be fun-sized.

carry on then posted:sup thinkpad w540 user it's some kind of a dell the mouse options are the best: you have a touchpad, and a "pointing stick", the touchpad has two buttons on the bottom and three on top, with the middle one being used for scrolling with the "pointing stick" also for some reason the area around the keyboard is rubber coated, so wiping away dust is really hard because it sticks to the surface.
