I'm sure it's a bad data point, but I bought an HP 2000-240CA in 2011 and it's been the best laptop I've ever had. It's been apart and back together a few times for regular maintenance (wore the keyboard out and just recently the fan was caked with dust). I like that it's a beater and goes with me everywhere.
Simple and cheap at $340 new in 2011.
I use it for web development and playing older or indie games.
- wtallis 13y agoYou wore out the keyboard in only two years, and you're willing to call it the best laptop you've ever had? You must have quite the collection of laptop repair horror stories.
- rocky1138 13y agoHah! What I meant was that it's a beater laptop that I've banged around and carried everywhere with me. And it's always worked. It's so low cost that I didn't give replacing the keyboard and taking it apart to dust the fan a second thought. It's the difference between driving a Ferrari and worrying about a minor scratch and driving a station wagon through a muddy road.
