My laptop froze while I was writing that. It seemed like it was just my browser. I closed everything else, but couldn't save my tabs, or close any.
However, I could submit.
Staples has an i5 version of that 17.3" HP i5 for $430.
i5 Lenovo with 512GB SSD for $500.
17.3" Lenovo i7
17.3" HP i7. It mentions an NVMe SSD, but I don't know whether the previous ones had it. However, it does mention having 1,600 x 900 graphics.
I swear that Target had many more deals, but maybe they sold out.
HP sells a 15.6" i5 with 16 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, and Nvidia graphics for $600. It looks like the Target one with twice the memory.
I felt that I was out of sales and out of ideas, but
this list had
this laptop, which is bizarre, because I had already looked at Best Buy!
It looks like the AMD version of the Target laptop. I think that we have discussed that Intel computers often have on-board graphics, while AMD ones have discrete video cards. Sure, that is another point of failure, which may have been the problem with my gaming laptop, but it seems like since the Intel version has Nvidia graphics, the AMD version has better graphics.
The AMD laptop at Best Buy is $100 less!
Since I don't play games, would that make Gimp faster?
