Tech What is the best laptop I can get for €600?

[cowardescent]

I live in Ireland and I'm looking for a laptop with good specs. I'm willing to order it from the UK so long as shipping isn't expensive. Is Lenovo a good brand?

Lenovo is not bad. I like Toshiba and HP, but I do not travel with a laptop and use it instead of a desktop and because it takes up less space.

This belongs to LAVA, not a CEP&S, a mod will shortly move your thread once he's online. Your best bet it's Acer Aspire E15

Yeah, lenovo is good. Get a thinkpad. Swing the best model you can get. Watch their prices since they run sales and stuff all the time.

this is a hard question to answer without knowing what you plan to do with the machine. what are your requirements @cowardescent ?

I need a lot of RAM and disk space. It's for college.

 

[alasdairm]

ok, why do you need a lot of ram and disk space? what will you be doing?

College, duh.

Porn.

It's always porn ali

 

[alasdairm]

hence my question - you don't need a lot of ram or disk space for porn, depending on how you do it

Well I'll be in a programming course.

 

[alasdairm]

what are you coding?

no matter, unless you're using some very heavyweight ide, a laptop with 8gb should be plenty. in terms of disk space, it depends on how you work - you can always offload stuff you're not actively working on to a cloud service or an external hd so the acer shay recommended looks just fine. i'm a fan of lenovo and their ideapad 5 looks pretty nice. the dell inspiron 15 also looks pretty nice.

Do you have a specific budget in mind?

Will you use it for games, videos, music or just basic tasks in addition to programming?
