*slowly creeps in* I am just going to throw my 2 cents. Why not buy the cheaper/better working one and add Star wars decals? *slowly backs away*

I'M ASSUMING YOU'VE NOT HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY ANYTHING MORE INTENSIVE. THE STAR WARS STUFF I'M SEEING HERE LOOKS LIKE THE KIND OF THING YOU'D GET OVER IN A WEEK, IT'S YOUR MONEY AND ALL THAT BUT I'D DEFINITELY RECOMMEND GETTING THE MORE COMPETENT MACHINE.

YOU MAKE A GOOD POINT. I'M NOT GOING TO BUY THE STAR WARS ONE.

BUT.

I WANT A SOFTWARE THAT HAS MY PROGRAMS ON THE DESKTOP AND A START BUTTON IN THE CORNER. NONE OF THIS IRRITATING CLUSTERED SHIT THAT I'M GOING TO STRUGGLE TO NAVIGATE.

ALSO.

IS HP BETTER THAN ACER?

WINDOWS 10 WILL DO FINE FOR WHAT YOU'RE AFTER, IT HAS A PROPER START BUTTON.

I DON'T THINK IT'S A BLACK AND WHITE "ONE IS BETTER THAN THE OTHER" SITUATION. I DON'T KNOW THE SPECIFIC STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF EACH MANUFACTURER BUT LOOKING AT THE INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS IN THE ACER MACHINE IF YOU WERE TO SUGGEST ANOTHER MACHINE IT WOULD BE EASY TO COMPARE THEM TO ONE ANOTHER. FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH IN MY (SOMEWHAT BRIEF) SEARCH, THIS WAS THE BEST MACHINE I COULD FIND AT THE PRICE POINT YOU SPECIFIED.

I don't know what to do. I'm definitely not getting the Star Wars one though, you've successfully shown me the light on that one.

The laptop SJ is suggesting is really good for the price to be honest. I'm half tempted to pick it up so I can play hearthstone downstairs on the couch naked.
