The best time to buy is coming up next month. If you can wait, the week
of Thanksgiving should be a good time to buy and of course there is
Black Friday and all the Christmas sales. I only buy during back to
school and Thanksgiving forward to Christmas.
You can also subscribe to the weekly sales flyer from Staples and Office
Max / Office Depot.
I've been able to save some cash doing so.
I always buy Dell and have not had any problems running Linux on them.
I've been buying Intel for the past 8 years. AMD is Good, I just like
Intel.

To the Linux Brain Trust:
What is your advice to update my system?
Hard to believe, but my 5-year old system a Lenovo Q150
nettop with Linux Mint has been running flawlessly 24/7.
It is never turned off except because of a power outage.
I sudo backup my main files to three laptops, two old
thinkpads T43 and T60 and a Dell Inspiron model 3542.
While the current setup has been entirely satisfactory,
I realize that it might not continue to run forever,
and I would like to get system with 4-GB ram, perhaps
a faster processor (but with low heat), and one that
had a built-in battery so it would keep running in the
event of a power outage.
What would y'all recommend?
PS: Low power consumption, low heat, and perhaps SSDs
might be pluses, but long-running reliability is #1.
This old Lenovo net-top has been rock solid, but they
apparently don't make one with 4-GB ram and internal
battery.
