This question has a point; I have had my last laptop for just over 5 years, I spent a lot on it and took good care of it, but it has been outdated for a while, and its time to replace it. Should I spend $500 every 2.5 years on a midrange laptop, or $1000 on a good one every 5 years?

#739

I think this is a question that needs more than one answer. I have a midrange laptop, on sale it was about $450. It has lasted me 3 years and is still going strong. I doubt I'll have to replace it before 5 years. I looked at higher priced laptops but couldnt justify spending that much more for more than I needed. My husband is still using a good laptop that is on about year 7 but there are things that are starting to fall apart. Based on my experience with this laptop I'd go for midpriced.

What do others think about SVS's question?

#740

Unless you are a big gamer, I don't see any need for $1,000+ computer, especially a laptop. $500 can get you an Intel Core processor, 6GB of RAM and and 750 GB of hard drive space.

What are your computing needs?

#741

Since you can't do heavy stuff (gaming) on a laptop anyway without overheating it, I'd pay more attention to the keyboard, the screen, the touchpad and such than the processing power. (Meaning that an i3 with 4-6 GB RAM would probably be good enough.) Also, if I had to buy a new laptop (which I gladly don't) I'd get a Thinkpad or a Dell Latitude or some other business model as they tend to be less flimsy than the "consumer" ones -- and I definitely wouldn't spend more than 500 on it.

That said, my current laptop cost me 30 (thirty) euros used and is perfect for what I'm using it for.

Do I have to ask a question?

#742

Yes (And Thank You all for the advice

)

Do you have any weird food related idiosyncracies?

#743

Yes, I will freak out about raisins. Longtime vegetarian, but if someone put a gun to my head, I'd happily eat a handful of bloody beef over a handful of raisins. Like seriously just typing this out makes me feel like I have hives.

What is your favorite era for SNL?

#747

The earliest, when they first started.

What is the first grown up show you were allowed to watch?

#748

I didn't really have censorship growing up so probably SNL actually. I liked Tunsis, the Driving Cat.

How censor-y were your parent(s)?

#749

Mediocre until they went to bed

What did you used to do behind your parents backs?

#750

Not very much, really! I was supposed to come straight home from school unless I called and told my dad where I was going first, so sometimes I'd go to the gas station for a snack or something without calling, which I wasn't supposed to do. They were weirdly stern about knowing my whereabouts but pretty permissive about the media I was allowed to absorb at home.

What is your favorite kind of hot dog?
