Hi Mark,I had a client of mine purchase the same the laptop. I came to the tend conclusion you did. It even has one removable DIMM slot.So the answer is no. But the screen quality was kinda bad. So I don't know if it's good for long term use.~ Jared -------- Original message --------From: Mark Galassi <mark@galassi.org> Date: 4/27/22 7:13 PM (GMT-07:00) To: NMGLUG org mailing list <nmglug@nmglug.org> Subject: [nmglug] best laptop for under $400 these days? Dear nmglug,We will be giving our summer interns a $400 stipend to get a computer. Last year y'all sent me to the Asus VivoBook Ryzen 3 at this link:https://www.walmart.com/ip/ASUS-VivoBook-F412-14-FHD-AMD-Ryzen-3-3250U-AMD-R... it worked out wonderfully for our students.With a year passing, does anyone know if there's another contender in the < $400 space now?_______________________________________________nmglug mailing listnmglug@lists.nmglug.orghttp://lists.nmglug.org/listinfo.cgi/nmglug-nmglug.org
