So - as stated in the Subject - its completely Dying on me. Up till recently - after charging it - if I tried to use it based upon Battery - it would only last like 13 min. before it would Die. Thus - when I use it (like on my train rides home) - I must ALWAYS have it plugged in.
Well - last night - it got worse. You see, the power on the train - it fluctuates - to the point where it goes off momentarily. Its so quick most people don't notice it. But, for me - its Noticeable - since the laptop dies completely during those fluctuations. And, these days I am REALLY Busy w/my Prototype design work. Including a Design that I am filing for a patent ASAP - then launch it in a KickStarter campaign. So - I REALLY need a Viable laptop so I can work on the train! What would you folks recommend as a CHEAP Replacement? I don't have a lot of Cash - as things are still tight for me financially - thus I would prefer to only spend between $200 - $300! I was just looking on Amazon - and I found this ASUS laptop: http://www.amazon.com/15-6-Inch-Dual-Core-Laptop-Windows-Upgrade/dp/B00SV72ZA2/ref=dp_ob_title_ce I saw other laptops on Amazon - but, in my price range - they tended to be Celerons - which I kinda hate. I was also considering a Tablet - like the ASUS Transformer. But, not sure a Tablet would do what I need. Especially since I need to run hi-end 3D SW like 3DS Max - which is a Really Big SW App - which takes a lot of Disk Space for even the basic SW install. So - not sure a Tablet would be Viable - also, I only run Max w/a Mouse - as I hate Touch pads! And - yeah - I know my price range is VERY Low - and as they say - you get what you pay for...
