    I bought a $300 HP i5 laptop from Walmart Black Friday sale three years ago, the battery drains when the laptop is supposed to be off, and now the HDMI port, and audio out don’t work, usb solves both these issues. Got the extended warranty for something like $29 for 2 years from HP when the 1 yr warranty ran out, but can’t be without my laptop to send it in for servicing. For $300 it’s been worth it, probably looking for another one sometime later this year. It’s cheap and it won’t last long, but it’s cheap. (*edit: just noticed this offering is an AMD chip, and I don’t fucks with those, so personally, I wouldn’t buy it, but that’s just me)
