How is this possible? I have a 6th gen i5 and 8gb ram laptop. It can do 30+ tabs on chrome.
What browser needs 8 gb for one tab?
3rd time they've run this deal in the past couple months. The cheapest PC with decent specs in which you get a 15" IPS screen.

Man would pay 20-30 more just to have touchscreen. My mom loves touch screen

I mean not exact model and less ram etc. But less than $400 for slightly better specs than this deal not out of the question imo.

I've only used Apple computers in the past. Would this laptop be okay for downloading large movie files and doing video editing on?
