(disclaimer: this is literally my first time visiting /g/, cus im desperate, so sorry if this isn't where i should be posting this)
im looking for a laptop that i could use for the next 3 years until i can splurge on a good desktop.
i mainly need it for drawing and skyping. my current laptop will only be around till the end of the summer, so im using that time to save up cus currently i dont have a ton of money to spend.
1. i really want at least 8 RAM
2. 64 bit would be sick
3. IPS panel??
any help or recommendations would be super appreciated.

Well what's your budget, maybe a used MacBook pro 13 or something
>>
Xps 13? Any surface, Yoga X1, are you wanting a touchscreen/pen?
>>
>>54712381
id rather avoid a mac although im not completely against it, ive just never owned one and ive always heard they suck.
im currently working two jobs and i have the entire summer to save for it, but if i bought it in the next week for distance it would have to be around 300

Don't be a memelord, most of the things wrong with Apple are price
Get a cheap refurbished MBP and upgrade the RAM and you should be good, those fucks last forever
>>
>>54712863
alright, ill definitely look into it. still super open to pc suggestions tho, since i have no idea how to use a mac.

A budget would be helpful

Just get a MacBook, and do your own research why you should or shouldn't. They are definitely some of the best all-round sub $2000 computers. You can always load windows or Linux on if you hate osx
>>
I would say the Yoga X1 is probably the best you could get, but it's also insanely expensive.
>>
>>54712346
no
>>
HP EliteBook 2730p is $100 on eBay. Doesn't get any more budget than that. Install Krita on it and you're good to go, anon.
>>
im actualli uses and 5 years old Thosiba Satallite as laptop. work great for PS and Sai.

I recomend look for these speecs,
SSD if posible.
1080p. screen.
4gb ram will be ok. but upgrade to 8 dont shuld cost 2 much

and plz dont buy an acer or macShit.
