SignUp Now!Ive been storing my veggies in the crisper for years, I don't get the big deal
I am looking to purchase a new laptop. Said laptop will be used almost solely for remoting into work PCs from my home and for storing pics/vids. We don't do any gaming at all. My wife will do minimal editing of pics/vids. We will do very minimal web surfing as well since we use iphones and iPad for that. I need some recommendations. I've spoken with two IT professionals, and they both recommend at least 16GB RAM, SSD or at least boot SSD with high GB HDD, and dedicated graphics. I go to Dell, HP, wherever and try to put this thing together, and I'm creeping up to $1000 which seems way too expensive for how little I actually want to do with the thing. It's 2017, and I figured I could get a decent laptop for the price of a toaster oven. But I'll spend the money if I have to.
Any gurus here have an opinion for me?
Also, I should note that Mac vs PC doesn't matter so much to me. Mac helps keep us from giving it AIDS, but PC's price point is typically better plus in my limited experience it's easier using PC to remote into work PCs.
