I stopped buying new and started buying second hand about a year ago. Honestly, it's worked out just fine. I got a 6th gen i7 Lenovo T460S with 20Gb RAM, 512Gb M.2 and 1920 x 1080 display, all for about USD 700, about a year ago on eBa

I used to be like your brother; possibly worse. Overweight; unable to find motivation; waiting for things to fall into my lap; waiting for things to be 'perfect' before starting anything; hiding behind video games and blaming othe

When my kids were about the age of yours, I did the bulk of my learning during the weekends; there was always at least half a day's worth of 'free' time distributed throughout those two days. I can't remember if it was T

Worth considering Lenovo Thinkpad - can be pricey, but you know, you don't have to buy brand new! I recently purchased a refurbished T460s (1080p, 6th gen i7, 20Gb RAM, 512Gb M2) for about USD 700. It's a complete typing pleasure

In the words of Eric Cartman's Karate instructor, "You rak dishiprin!" What you have to realise (not just understand conceptually) is that anything worth doing -- anything significant in your life -- requires hard work. Now,
