Laptops - battery life.

[pete376403]

PCtraders.co.nz have a good range of ex-lease gear. I have bought a number of laptops and desktops from them for work and they have been fairly priced, include a 3 month warranty (longer if required/paid for)

Go to www.graysonline.co.nz and get an ex-leave Lenovo.

Mine's an i7 that I got for $300, with no disc. Stuck an SSD in it and Bob's your uncle.

Hinge & power connector are the 2 main areas laptops fail. Pro-quality laptops don't have these problems

Oh... BTW if you can find a high spec model with a Win 10 problem, sometimes marked as 'unspecified problem' just needing a simple regedit to fix, those ones are unually a complete bargain

I see the bidders have arrived. With a bit of luck one of those might make a Linux box if it could be had for the right price. Not that I need one, but I've bookmarked the site. Thanks for that.

Partner just got hers. Aspire something. 600 odd down from a grand because they labelled it wrong and gave us some 32gb piece of shit by accident. Wee thing with touch screen and 6+? Hours of battery for light work.

I'll hunt for something second hand/ex lease, but I've decided to buy a diesel heater first...XD

Also, thanks for the input. Has been helpful.

In the nature of an update? I passed on the helpful comments to the mother of the high school kid, thanks. The mum replied that the girl had set her mind on Apple.
So I listed some of the prices and sent her the link to Apple NZ. Things have gone quiet, I think she's in shock.
