Yeah I'm a college student and very much need my own computer now. Keep in mind that I'm a college student. I am a college student that does not want to spend $1000+ on a laptop. So in other words, do not even suggest laptops that are insanely expensive just because they are popular or come from a hit manufacturer. I'm not very experienced in the field of computers and I know this is a rather hostile environment towards people who don't know the basics, so bear with me.
My first choice at the moment.- Intel Pentium N3540 processor (2.16GHz)
- 4GB memory (I need to know if I can add more, FAQs contradict each other)
- 500GB hard drive
- Windows 8.1 (I'll probably get Windows 10 though, if I do get it)
- 15.6" screen (not touchscreen, don't care)
- CD/DVD player/burner (definitely need this)
- SD card reader
- 1 USB 3.0, 2 USB 2.0, HDMI port
Clearly not the best laptop out there, but I think it's really good steal for $263. Feel free to request other computers, preferably under $500. I won't buy something that's barely any better than this one if it means that I'd have to pay like $200 on top of it.
FAQs:Why are you buying from Wal-Mart???: Because I don't care.
Why aren't you building a computer???: Because I want a laptop, I have no build experience, I have very little computer knowledge, my brother has a build, I don't want to wait for shipping/assembly, I can't carry a desktop with me, etc. Do not suggest that I build.
Don't you know that this computer is not the best for gaming???: Yes. But I'm being a thrifty college student and FPS is not a huge deal for me.
Why don't you know as much as I do about computers?: Don't post here.
