You don't want to spend $300 to repair a $2000 laptop?
I'm still irritated that I have to spend more than $300 to buy a new laptop. It's a constant struggle to balance old man syndrome with reasonable sticker outrage.
- ivraatiems 5y agoIn fairness, a laptop only has a useful lifespan of 3-5 years anyway. The more questionable thing is spending $2k on a laptop in the first place. The Blade Stealth ran me $1300, which I thought was reasonable for what I was getting. I don't expect it to last more than a few years, though.

- ivraatiems 5y agoThe keyword is useful - and for my workload, which in fairness probably isn't yours. I'm intending to play recently released games on my laptop.
- DynamicStatic 5y agoYou can buy a ThinkPad with a 3080 in it. I think your games would run fine.
- csomar 5y agoI have a 10-year old macbook pro that's still running just fine.
- bogwog 5y agoNope. Why spend money on something that's most likely going to fail again? Those $300 will be better spent on a new laptop from a more reliable company. Also, I didn't lose $2000, I bought a $2000 life lesson: never buy Razer products.
