This will do fine with general Internet browsing and watching movies/YT/streams, etc.
If you end up buying i suggest getting RAM upgrade at least another 8gb, preferably more. 1x16gb module can be bought around 25$, depending on module supported.
* looking at it for my mother…she could buy a house and burn it to the ground and not worry about it, and is interested in this machine.
Don't be such tech snob.

This is the 3530 with the HD (Not FHD) TN Monitor...
https://laptopdecision.
It has the 220 NITs.
Clearly not the same screen here...
Here is another 3530
https://laptopmedia.com/review/de...5-3530/#p5
It has 300 NITs but only 60 Refresh not 120 as this laptop.
Clearly not the same screen as here..(Edit: Oops....Latitude....Google Search result fooled me...)
I can't find a review of their 120Mhz IPS screen at 250 nits for this insprion model.
The closest I could find was an entry level Vostro with a 120Mhz IPS Screen rated ast 250 Nits. It was tested at 262 NITS an d57RGB.....But it's hard to say if its the same screen but likely close to what you will get.
So we know this is IPS not TN and 120 vs 60.
So it's not the lowest possible quality screen...which is shocking.

I'm thinking it miight be a good idea to just do my banking/investment accounts from a separate laptop than any computer I use for anything else. Debating to go with something like this, or another chromebook pluslike I just got my dad.
