    $2000 should get you something pretty nice. Do you have anything specific in mind that you’re planning to do with it? Important stuff to keep in mind up front, in no particular order: do you play games? How big should the screen be? How long do you want to use it on battery? Any operating system preferences?


  • This goes for any game, but especially Destiny 2 because of the way Bungie lets players interact with different menus during loading screens: I hate getting kicked out of menus when I finally land on a destination, especially if it’s a social area. It’s pretty obnoxious if you’re tweaking parts of your loadout and then have to dive back into the menus to get back where you were.





  • At an old job, I used to work the early shift from 6am-3pm with an hour lunch whenever I wanted. One winter, I thought it’d be nice to try and commute home with plenty of sunshine, so I “took my lunch” at 2:00 and went home. This ended up going on for a couple months until other people started doing it too, and finally management started telling us that we couldn’t take our lunch breaks during the last hour of a shift.

    Sure was nice while it lasted!
