This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

My mom wanted a "laptop that wouldn't freeze or get obsolete fast" and had a 17" screen. Had to direct her to one of Acer's weaker gaming setups. The most demanding stuff she plays are those hidden object games that you also find on phones. Wasted potential, but she's been happy and without a single complaint of it slowing down in 2 years

Wasted potential,

Nah, better cooling, lots of battery, better 2d acceleration. Not as advantageous as playing real games on it, but the hardware will make 2d experiences nicer.
