Well I have to admit that Dominica's Lenovo is generally outperforming this MacBook Pro
With as much as your Mac is crashing,.. a Gateway computer would be better.

ha ha, oh man, Gateway

You mean at $1099 it doesn't have the newest, most powerful graphics card on the market? That's just upsetting. You'd think at that price it'd have Cannonlake, 128GB of RAM, and 17 PCIe SSDs in a Raid 0. What a scam.

dude, you're the one who asked for feedback. Now you're gonna snark for me pointing out something that you might not have noticed? Good luck getting help next time.

@Nic I was kidding, read it again. P.S. help w/ what?

Are there computers that don't outperform MacBook Pros? At one point I had my $150 Acer Chromebook side by side w/ my Force Touch Retina MBP and the Chromebook ran circles around it in terms of browsing speed.

I'm one of the culprits and I'm upset by it myself.

I'll go be extra mean on 4chan later to make up for it

@Nic lol awesome

I have to admit I have a Lenovo. However, it was free and it's running Linux (so I don't think the BIOS stuff is an issue?). It's not my main though, just a side one I use for random stuff.

@johnhooks they used to make lots of decent stuff! I just wouldn't buy one now unfortunately

You mean, they bought decent stuff from IBM then tried to make their own

And here I am taking a job that uses IBM/Lenovo BladeCenters exclusively.

Don't call them IBM/Lenovo, they are 100% Lenovo now. They put IBM in the name as marketing to make people think that it is enterprise class gear.
And blades on top of that? Dell even came out and said that blades make no sense and are just for the suckers to get locked in. They make them but don't recommend them.

Oh they have IBM blades prior to the acquisition and Lenovo blades post-acquisition (although they may be the same)... as a newbie I probably won't be in the position to bring up how blades cost so much with 0 benefits for a while.
