Yo! I need a fairly cheap (sub-600 preferably) laptop just so I can remote in to my own desktop and UFV's machines. I want a new one for the sake of warranty, but when I went to Best Buy they were a little pushy about trying to get me to by something more expensive. Unfortunately, I don't know much about laptop components/APUs, but I do know enough to be very sure I don't need a dedicated GPU and RGB, I have enough power in my desktop lol. The only thing I will probably use the actual laptop hardware for are low-level coding classes (so it'd have to be a windows machine), word processing, reading, and watching a few videos.
Any suggestions as to where to go where the salespeople are more friendly and non-aggressive? I also don't mind going out to Mission.
Edit: thanks guys, you're the sweetest <3
