So Ive spent all day fighting with my computer trying to get my internet back on (typing from my phone right now). I'm gonna need a backup device. What are some decent laptops or tablet-like things that can givee internet, let me use music software, and probably watch online videos and shit?

Lenova's are really good quality for the price laptops. in the $400 range they're fast with good hdd space and i've always had them be solid as butts.

solid as PRISON butts.

If you are going to want to use music software like DAWS and stuff you will want to avoid Android based stuff as there are inherent latency issues with the OS

But yeah, Lenovos are usually pretty good. Most laptops over $500 will be good for just about anything besides gaming.

Word.

I love that we can get decent laptops these days for $400ish. I remember paying like $1000 for my old laptop years ago and that thing was obsolete in a hurry.
