hehe i forgot was gonna see if i could find any decent/cheap computers online today and i did Not Do That but i dont really know where to look lmao
@knifethievingcrow i might actually be able to help you there!
newegg has a really robust search feature, and also stocks factory refurbished computers as well as has sales. they also cultivate reviews that are thorough, so you'll be able to get some good feedback.
i don't know if they do much international business, but if you're outside the US, you can at least use them as like a catalogue to narrow down what you might like and then look for those models more local to you. ^0^
@knifethievingcrow they're where i've bought my last, like, 3 laptops from, and i've gotten really nice deals each time.
(the only other advice i can think to give is that acer is the devil and i am still deeply prejudiced against their build quality. yeah it's cheap but it's gonna wear the fuck out. their monitors are ok but every thing with a hd i've had from them has busted in under a year. ASUS, though, is good! totally different brand, more solid build quality by far. but acER sucks.)
@wigglytuffitout heheheh my last desktop was acer and it's fuckin dead (and it took 4 people to figure that out lmao) so im def not getting another
@knifethievingcrow they were the company my high school went with for their laptop program... four years, and i never had a laptop that lasted the whole fucking schoolyear.
ok i think one did, but only because i was fine with typing around the pressure points of somebody's foot after they knocked my laptop bag down and stepped on it 
BUT ALL THE REST, HARD DRIVES, EVERY TIME.
at least i never lost a major project in progress that way 😂 but yeah i'm still on the Fuck Acer train
