Title: Mrs Opti has bought me a new laptop.
Post by: Field Marshal Dr. Opti on 21 July 2021, 13:22:41
I think she is trying to apologise for being partly responsible for breaking two of the last three.

She tells me that she still thinks I'm a bastard......just her kind of bastard. :)

Chinky made by the look of it.

I know nothing of computers.

It's a Lenovo Yoga 7i.

All I know is that it has an 11th generation intel i7 processor and 512 SSD.....because it says so on the box. ;D

It seems ok.

TB will probably be along shortly to tell me it is cheap commie crap that won't last 5 minutes. :)

don't forget the SSD you just fitted to your now dead laptop can be removed and used as back-up storage if you fit it in a USB enclosure

clicky £4.99  (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111980790359?hash=item1a12934257%3Ag%3AH9AAAOSw4tJeT6UT&LH_BIN=1)

The 1 TB of SSD was for Mrs Opti's computer.......cost around £80 but made a huge difference to how quickly it responded.

My old laptop has 256 GB of SSD, but I think this may be f*ucked as I couldn't get it to boot up. :y

The 256GB SSD is M2 2280 if that means anything significant.

Thats not an SSD, but an M.2 drive.  M.2 is generally faster, but only fits M.2 slots.  SSD is a little slower, but can actually replace a hard disk.

If the laptop does what you need it to, why should it matter?

When your bent over in pain after the laptop has collided with your head, the pen can be slotted up your jacksie!  :o  ;D

I'd love to see your working for that statement.


It might be a good durability test for your new digital pen.

I'm old-fashioned and only like women.

When I say women I mean the old variety that has lumps in their sweater, rather than in their knickers.

There are new variants of 'women' available in 2021, apparently. ::) ::) ::) :)

Not really, people are free to buy whatever tat they like. Be it Mercedes Benz cars or consumer grade branded laptops designed to fail at the end of the warranty period.  Makes no difference to me.

But because I buy decent reliable stuff, that has the side effect of my newest Windows PC is 7th gen Core, and most are 2/3rd gen ;D
