  • I agree. I was a big fan of hers during Congressional testimony. But she is definitely awkward in unscripted environments and would be a poor presidential candidate in a nation where a significant portion of the electorate wants a president they can have a beer with. Additionally, her history as a prosecutor makes Democrats suspicious of her.

    Republicans hate her because she’s a Black woman. They’ll make up other excuses, but none of them hold water.



  • Define cheap. The least expensive laptop on Dell Refurbished currently is $180 and would easily run any desktop environment, including the heavyweights. Specs are here:
    CPU
    1x Intel Core i5-6300U (2-Core, 2.40 GHz)
    Memory
    8 GB (1x 8GB)
    HDD
    256 GB (1x 256 GB SSD)
    Display
    14" HD (1366 x 768)

    If you’re thinking cheaper yet, you’ll want at least a dual core processor and 4GB of RAM. Just about any business laptop from the last 10 years or so would work, as long as you stay away from bottom of the barrel Celerons or AMD processors and <4GB of RAM. You can run Linux on a very low spec machine, but you’d want to use a lightweight DE and web browsing wouldn’t be a fun experience.
