[Discuss] need advice buying new tablet/laptop



Go to Micro Center in Cambridge.  I'm typing on a very thin and quick 
enough laptop I got there a couple of months ago for $400.  i3, 500gb 
hd, 6gb ram, 4 usb 2, 1 hdmi, dvd, sd card, metal accents, and pretty 
nice for the price.

They have some refurbished computers as well.

Good luck,
Eric
