You haven’t seen broke try being a black American πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ for a couple years πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™‚οΈπŸ€·πŸ½β€β™‚οΈβ°

Facebook marketplace. Just turn the thing on and plug it in to make sure everything works. Or get it checked at a repair shop before purchase.

Tiny town, marketplace is useless for me

PC repair shops usually have extras if you have one near by.

Can confirm.

Source: I own a computer repair shop with my husband and we probably have a couple laying about right now.

What should I stay away from? Beside chromebooks? πŸ˜‚

That I do not know. Seeing as how I just got a hand me down laptop after not having one for over 10 years now. New to Apple laptops but so far so good πŸ‘

Ah, gotcha.

Sounds like a date for laptop transaction can happen here!

Perhaps... local first always though πŸ’œ

For sure, local first. But, I'm an option.

There's a very high probability of re addressing this conversation πŸ˜‚

nostr:npub1cgcwm56v5hyrrzl5ty4vq4kdud63n5u4czgycdl2r3jshzk55ufqe52ndy what's your price point/budget? Lemme see what we've got. We can probably make this happen.

I'm going to try local first, but options are very limited here so I'll come back to you before I go to ebay or online box shops πŸ«‚

Or.... universities

Clever

eBay, refurbished enterprise grade, make sure it's upgradeable

Also, no Chromebooks or anything similar.

anything 1 or 2 generations behind (applies to cars, TV etc too). Much cheaper and there's supply.

Solid advice

E-commers sites

Like Amazon etc
