My two laptops were an older ZenBook UX303 which was amazing. After like seven years I needed a new one and it got relegated to media centre duty (and then stolen with everything else a week ago).

It's replacement was a ZenBook UX425. It's also really amazing. I haven't had any problems and the design is light, small but sturdy. I'm not an action-laptop user tho so maybe if you're careening down a mountain it's different?

I have a desktop for focused work, like if I need to sit down and doing audio work or whatever. My laptop (that I'm posting this on) is my usual computer tho. It's awesome. Just chilling in the lounge, watching a housemate play games and if I want I can go on the balcony and do coding while seeing birds in trees and poo poo.

I guess it makes sense to hate laptops if you're an antisocial shutin tho.

I think Macs are cool but I use an ASUS Zenbook because there's apps I use a lot that are native on it and I don't really care that much about an OS so that's what I do thanks for listening.

Every now and again I check out Linux distros and they've pretty good these days but there's no reason to use them at all for me because I already have a laptop that does the stuff I need, so problem already solved.

Agreed. But the key is to have the right tool for the job, that is why I use a Mac Mini, MacBook Air and iPad Pro 12.9. Plus there is a Lenovo in here for random other stuff. And the wall screen has a Chromebox.

Jesus Christ, this is identical to the room of the self proclaimed entrepreneur guy I knew. A lot of tech and screens with the blinds and brown couch and seats. It's an exact copy, it's wild.

There's no commentary from me on the actual room, it just put me right there mentally with him explaining some business idea he had which I think was a poorly thought out MLM?
