Maybe put Ableton on it to mess around with, nothing serious. I don't care about the touch screen but I saw the price and thought it was affordable enough. --- Posted with GameRaven 3.3 <cite>Smashingpmkns posted [p:890086816] in Is this a ...

No Y doe no SSD (I could never go back, personally) no GPU (not necessarily bad for your purposes) 2 TB HDD for something like this is overkill. Who stores media these days in terms of songs/movies? It's all streaming or cloud service these days. The only other big space-user is games, which you won't be able to play on an i5 with integrated graphics. It's price point also makes me assume it probably either has poor battery life, or some of the other internal components are cheap. Expect issues with the wifi card down the line. And the touch screen is probably glitchy. In short, it'll run like a laptop from 5 years ago. You're paying 400 after tax for a glorified web browser, and it's a big, bulky laptop at that. The 500-600 price point will be almost exponential in gains because that budget allows for a more balanced build that isn't as bottle necked. --- "He has two neurons held together by a spirochete." <cite>Soviet_Poland posted [p:890088385] in Is this a ...

Sami1000 11/09/17 6:50:57 PM #8:	Even if you use it for just work the screen is likely dim, and horrible looking pos. I know its tempting to buy cheap laptops, but after owning one 11" screen laptop that i got for 250 i can say that don't buy. Either buy proper one, or don't buy one at all. Even though its cheap laptop its waste of couple hundreds. No sense buying something that fits the bare minimum, if even that, than invest couple hundreds more to buy something actually decent, considering you likely use it for years. --- Can't think any good sig <cite>Sami1000 posted [p:890088673] in Is this a ...
