    My Elitebook 840 g2 is an old brilliant machine. Ain’t fancy and is a durability beast.



  4. j Steez on October 12, 2020 at 3:15 pm

    Aced aspire 5 slim can be sold as low as 313. Currently 349 but can go on sale. Has a bought it at 313 and upgraded the ram. Great entry level computer with 128gb ssd and 4 gb ram. Ryzen 3 and ips screen. Easy to upgrade. Or jump up to the ryzen 5 for 500

  11. Aamir Yousuf on October 12, 2020 at 3:21 pm

    This one deserves a thumbs down 👎



  12. Tax-fraud-o-saurus on October 12, 2020 at 3:24 pm

  13. Spacetuft on October 12, 2020 at 3:25 pm

  14. TheDude Lebowski on October 12, 2020 at 3:26 pm

    I came here for a 2yr old video after seening a 2mo old video where the host said "labtop" 30 times. Linus is the best. Period.



  15. Luke Lewis on October 12, 2020 at 3:26 pm

  16. Jōsë Valencia El Cuh on October 12, 2020 at 3:29 pm

    Kids don’t fucking need a 2000$ laptop just buy them a Chromebook it’s not like they finna be editing things, only if your an adult I would buy a more expensive



  17. Rhy hood on October 12, 2020 at 3:29 pm

    Guys… He started with actual budget machines, but listed pricier machines because some people have higher budgets and want to spend them on a back to school laptop. Don’t be mad because he did his job.



  18. Flo on October 12, 2020 at 3:30 pm

    This is junk advice, get an old upgradeable Thinkpad and don’t be afraid anyone would ever steal your laptop.



  19. Paul D on October 12, 2020 at 3:31 pm

    Is this guy a soprano cartoon character?

  26. Tao_ikry on October 12, 2020 at 3:43 pm

    Linus either doesn’t know what budget means, or he is trying to mess with everyone

    I searched for great deals for gaming laptops
    Linus: buy raspberry pi
    Me:



  35. Haruka Weeb on October 12, 2020 at 3:49 pm

    This is video is a joke , How is 1700 Dollars supposed to be ”affordable” nd for a college student ? when you say ” an affordable laptop for a college student” the budget is 500 dollars at most



  36. That Guy on October 12, 2020 at 3:50 pm

    Well if your parents are funding your university studies that nearly guarantee a future of endless bills to pay they might as well sponsor a “budget” laptop.



  37. cowpad 123 on October 12, 2020 at 3:50 pm

    Do a updated version please!!!!!!



  38. Selina Sattar on October 12, 2020 at 3:51 pm

    Wat about the word budget…



  39. Iamanoob Plaz on October 12, 2020 at 3:51 pm

    Meanwhile me: Being forced to have a chromebook for school.



  40. R-Drive on October 12, 2020 at 3:52 pm

  41. Le Snowy on October 12, 2020 at 3:54 pm

  42. Daniel Ouchakov on October 12, 2020 at 3:55 pm

  43. MADHU PADMANABHAN - KRISHNA BHARATH on October 12, 2020 at 3:56 pm

    $1400 : I am cheap!
    Me : I know. Linus told me.



  44. Alex Kent on October 12, 2020 at 3:56 pm

    I’ll make sure to keep these in mind when I’m crowned king



  45. Raiyhan Ali Fahmil Fikar on October 12, 2020 at 3:57 pm

    Dang it Linus, i was looking for a budget not a medium Lamborghini, i currently have a decent 2015 or 2017 laptop, for about 250$ maybe, can anybody reccomend simmiliar prices for current specs? I’m sure as hell seeing some powerful laptop at this range price



  46. GeneralPineapple on October 12, 2020 at 3:59 pm

    Me: Searches up on YouTube best budget laptops for school (bc how do I bring a desktop)
    Linus: doesn’t list anything under 700$



  47. Yonah Weiner on October 12, 2020 at 4:00 pm

    i got so excited for that "budget" lg gram… uch i think ill just get a chromebook



  48. Tripaloski_69 on October 12, 2020 at 4:00 pm

    Bruh I just need a laptop for uni and none of these videos have middle class people in them, dude probably has a rolls royce in his own garage and complains about the neighbor’s dog getting in his backyard private park.



  49. MemeBoi_Ramon on October 12, 2020 at 4:01 pm

    These are way to expensive some people aren’t Rich as you



  50. Justin Kuehn on October 12, 2020 at 4:02 pm

    missed the mark on this one. I’ve watched quite a few of your videos and the recommendations seem to be pretty tone deaf to the constraints and categories
