petitepedal ★ Posted September 27, 2013 Share #1 Posted September 27, 2013 So...I was looking for other stuff...but thought I would check out laptops while I was in Office Depot..they have a sale that ends tomorrow...seems to me it was $479 for a Acer touch screen...or a Samsung 6 (something...please don't get technical on me..MB or GB or whatever...) anyway...there were also some...non touch screen in the $350..$299 range...HP, Toshiba, Samsung I think those were the basics... another $79 for office...and did I want the $120 service contract in case I drop it? Then I went to Best Buy...my oh my that dude..who said he worked for hp...liked to talk....and I also went to the Samsung section of the store...didn't look at Apple...not in my budget.. Oh and I could go the Micron or whatever and look at re-builts... So How much power RAM or whatever do I need and the kind of processor? Got the internet...a few docs..my photos...maybe someday movies? and some of my music? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

az_cyclist Posted September 27, 2013 Share #3 Posted September 27, 2013 on a serious note (yes I clicked like on jsharr's post), have you priced laptops vs desktops? if you are mainly going to use it at home, you might get more for your money for a desktop computer.

Randomguy Posted September 28, 2013 Share #4 Posted September 28, 2013 Touchscreeens are absolutely stupid unless you have a tablet. Absolutely. Stupid. Worthless, really, just don't do it. Windows 8 sucks, you have to get a shell so you don't have to deal with the user interface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indy Posted September 28, 2013 Share #6 Posted September 28, 2013 What do you mean by movies, just watching or editing/creating them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
