Best Laptops for under $850

My boss gave me a $1000 Visa gift card to get him a laptop and told me to keep the change under the condition that I research the hell out of it and make a solid purchase that will last him for several years. He wants a fast computer for handling applications but is less concerned about having a shitkicker of a video card. Also, a SSD is a must, preferably 256 gigs, and no Apple bullshit.

After consulting with a few people and message boards, I thought I had found the laptop in a Lenovo Thinkpad. However, after looking into it, it seems like there is a potentially significant issue with its fingerprint reader and its drivers, and knowing my boss this is the kind of things that will drive him apeshit. So I am continuing my search. Any suggestions?

Interesting. I don’t know anything about laptops but here’s a bump.

Going back to Jow Forums is absolutely free, eat shit and go back to your containment board.

Man shopping for laptops is legitimately harder than it should be. I’m having quite a time figuring this out.

How about the new thin bezel Inspiron 15? (7586)

Xiaomi Mi

You want gayming or thin and light?

I doubt that.

With that type of money, you can get a XPS aftermarket or a XIAOMI Laptop.

You bring a thinkpad in and he is going to look at it and be like "This thing is huge, wtf user". He is probably a normie and into thin laptops.

Also the fingerprint is a bit finicky. I just turned it off. There are versions of thinkpads with the fingerprint sensors.

What a fucking terrible idea lmao

So he can post literal communist propaganda but other people don't have the right to call him out on his bullshit outside of Jow Forums. Neck yourself.

pffft HAHAHAHAHA

I know lol he’s pretty rich and occasionally throws his money around with reckless abandon. I’m about to order this HP laptop with a SSD from Canada so no tax, and also free shipping. I’m waiting to hear a reply from him but if he seems to like it I’m going to make sure he’s ok with me keeping the balance, which he probably is. That’ll be like a $400 bonus for me.

It was just a worksafe picture from my folder to grab people’s attention my dude. Smoke one and relax.

...do you not know what vaporwave is

i must think he is searching for a nsa plus windows laptop not a ganoo plus leenux, in case he is searching for a ganoo plus leenux you should get him a xps from dell that have support for linux, only downside is if you buy the developer edition that's the one with preinstalled linux is you need to uninstall a package for the super key to work, i think is for a thing of license with Microshit, if he is looking for nsa plus windows i dont know

what in the world are you saying my man
