I picked up 2 HP 15.6” laptops with I3 processors and solid state drives for 230/each from staples 3 months ago.
Still shocked at the price. I’ll keep an eye out. [Reply]
This may spill over into a "help me build a PC" sort of post, but if anyone sees a good deal on computer components (MB/CPU maybe RAM and/or SSD) I'd love some suggestions. I am not looking for something super high end, just wanting to help my teenager finish a build he got the case and power supply for about a year ago that hasn't ever been completed.
I am thinking mid-range for the MB/CPU, and then maybe the RAM and SSD if those don't cost too much, and then I'll have him get his own monitor and a suitable video card to go with the monitor and whatever games he would like to end up getting. [Reply]

NewEgg had their pc components deals week before last for some odd reason and now they are gone. Maybe they'll spring some good deals again on Cyber Monday, we'll have to watch and see. [Reply]
Grabbed a pair of Apple airpods while they were on sale. Great sounds and very comfortable but had all kinds of connection issues when I would go outside. Ended up returning them for Galaxy buds. Very happy so far. [Reply]

It's really weird. I find the airpods to be more rich and smooth while the buds have more clarity but seem a tad tinny. Wish I could get them just a little richer. When I activate any app EQ, the volume takes a significant dive making it worthless. [Reply]
