2 Sweet Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'm looking for a basic laptop (NOT a mac) in the $100-200 range. Its main use will be browsing the internet. Don't need a gaming laptop or anything fancy. Something with Windows XP and a decent processor would be fine. Lmk what you have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't need a gaming laptop or anything fancy. Something with Windows XP and a decent processor would be fine. Lmk what you have So if you found a decent Macbook in your price range you wouldn't buy it just because it's a Mac? I understand the anti-apple-fag sentiment but at a certain point (which IMO has well been reached) one has to take a hard look at massive security problems associated with browsing the web VIA windows and ask themselves whether it's worth it not to switch. Wait till someday when a hacker turns on your webcam while your browsing the net, then messages you (on your computer) in a DOS prompt telling you you've been owned, I bet you get a mac real fast . (and no that didn't happen to me but i've seen screen-shots / videos of it happening to other people, scary shit, and its more or less cake to do) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2 Sweet Posted July 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 I doubt there are any decent macbooks in my price range, and I just don't like macs, simple as that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicranium Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Does the ability to unplug it matter? lol I have a dual core Lenovo that's about 6 years old. Still runs great but if you unplug it it will only last about 10 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
