Linked is the laptop I bought today off amazon. It’s got pretty good reviews and it’s a solid upgrade from this ddr3 mechanical hdd msi I’ve been using since 2013. What spurred on the purchase is that I got a bsod a couple weeks back, explorer keeps crashing, and the drive for the last 3 days has been running at 100% nonstop.
I do plan on either doing something with linux mint or perhaps downgrading to windows 10 (since I have an actual copy of it at home).
Hope this works out! I really, really, needed an upgrade badly.


I don’t know if it possible to return it but you seriously over paid for a nearly decade old laptop
you can get that same laptop for 150 on eBay
You should look into a T14 gen 2 or newer you can get them for about the same price of the one on Amazon with double the power.
If you need help selecting one feel free to dm me
I mean hell if you want I can I send a t480 for the price of postage to yoy I have a couple laying around
The generosity of people on Lemmy is crazy, just giving away cool ass laptops? I wish
I stole them out of the trash at work
Damn, I wish
Ah well, it wasn’t my money anyway it was my dad’s he let me use his card for the purchase.
I hate the new numbering scheme, so much harder to get the right results on ebay.
