good laptop for college?

That's a bit too much to be spending on a laptop as a forensic science major, you won't even be using the features they're making you pay for. Thing is omni books are mainly for people who code and trust me they really do make use of all those nerdy specs, you're just wasting your money though. I wo

Taking a class over break at the community college…it requires windows OS to take the exams and I only have access to Apple (not even macOS…)

Don't get that, that's slow as shit. This is way better: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Lenovo-IdeaPad-Slim-3i-15-Intel-Core-i3-N305-8GB-RAM-256-GB-SSD-Arctic-Grey-Windows-11-in-S-Mode-82XB008LUS/5526976684

Best Chromebook for writers who travel?

Hello professor, I can give two pieces of advice: First: I have an Acer Spin 714 which I bought refurbished on eBay for less than $500. It may as well have been brand new.

Switched to Linux Mint after using Windows for almost a decade: Great OS!

Even a 1215u from 2022 chokes on the telemetry, that laptop ran perfectly until this year then I started getting barely 2.5 hours run time and it was slow as hell to use, even after a clean install. Switched it to Linux Mint in early July, and magically the performance issues disappeared and my batt

Just ordered Lenovo - IdeaPad 3i Chromebook 15.6" FHD Laptop - Intel Celeron - 4GB Memory with 64GB eMMC Storage - Artic Grey

I’ve had half a dozen or more Chromebooks over the years. Just ordered this one for $120 USD from BestBuy. I realize the specs are minimal. I plan to use it with Chrome Remote Desktop to access my desktop computer from my easy chair.
