    cries in 2015 acer aspire with GeForce 940m

    The price wasn’t as bad as I was expecting, even with the exchange rate.

    As much as I’m all for the “lol get Linux” memes, I don’t know the first thing about Linux, and prefer to debload windows. It sounds kind of dumb and circuitous, but literally everything I do is geared to windows. I wouldn’t even know where to start to move everything over to Linux/win11 vm (which I did notice they’ll preload for an extra 150 which is neat)

      The price is also including 19% EU tax which you might be exempted for if shopping from outside EU (hopefully to a country with less than 19% import tax).

      But yeah, while Linux can work great for a lot of usecases, I’m not gonna pretend it’s always easy and always works 100%, especially if everything you do is geared towards Windows. It works for me, including gaming ^^ your milage may vary.

      (But just for the sake of “lol get Linux” memes :P there’s always VirtualBox for trying out and playing around without messing up anything xP)
