If you're looking for a basic laptop with enough spare memory and a decent processor to last the next several years of whatever bollocks Microsoft shovels into W11, Best Buy is currently selling one of the cheapest 16gb laptops I've seen,period. The 1335U is a 10-core CPU that launched earlier this year and beats the piss out of the AMD 7520U (oft maligned as a rebadged 5500U) used in the only 16gb laptop cheaper than this one at $400, the on-board SSD provides a fair amount of storage space so offloads to external storage will be less frequent compared to similarly-priced laptops or let you hose around with partitioning for multiple OS options if that's your thing, features a full-sized keyboard with proper numpad and uses USB-C charging. Fancy or powerful this isn't, but if you're looking for a basic but functional parent 'puter or are the type who likes to stay with laptops until they're choking on the dust of technological progress, this may be the cheapest option available for the capabilities in question.

This one's also a 16GB laptop.
The difference with the yoga is that it's nicer in general I think

Yoga is better build, with better display and really good keyboard.

Just be careful with the hinge, don't spill water on it, and maybe even add a little wd-40 if it starts going too stiff /s
All laptop hinges break, but this one's not made of plastic, so i wouldn't worry too much about it.

Seems still live until midnight tonight. What does everyone think about MyBestbuy Plus membership. Effectively you get it for free. Is it worth it or more hassle to cancel later and not worth saving 50 and paying 50 for the membership.

Glossy/Glare/eye-piercing screen or anti-glare matte screen?

Glossy, no way...Saw a review of the 2022 model and it was glossy. Guess there are suckers out there that light blazing their eyes without being aware of it.

G-lossy, AKA, mirroring all the light intensity directly into your eye-hole.
