Thanks for all the replies! I agree, the 12k budget is not ideal. But then, budgets never are. 🙈 i7 seems to be totally out of it based on the 12k limit. So are 12th generation i5 processors, and even 11th gens are a bit of a reach. Re the data analysis part - she is a botany student at...

I've been asked to give someone advice on laptop buying. While I know more than her, I'd love to get some inputs from here, where there are plenty of people knowing more than me. The request: The laptop won't be used for gaming, but I do know that her data analyses concern is valid. I don't...

Thanks, @Wiℤard . I gave them a call; all their sheets are pure neoprene. For use with a PC something nylon-backed woud probably be better. I'll search a bit more, and if I can't find anything nylon-backed I'll probably just buy it from them.

Morning Carbonite!, Does anyone know of places that sell neoprene by the meter in Pretoria? My dining room table is currently being used as a work desk, and I'd like to cover the work area where with a neoprene sheet. While I'm busy, I'll probably cut sheets for my personal PC to replace the...

You have a PM

Hi all, My parents have an EPSON L800 that is giving issues - it's colours aren't as bright and sharp as they used to be, and the nozzle clean test doesn't print the cyan and magenta lines properly, though the ink has been recently replaced. My father has tried the usual tricks - cleaning the...

Send me a PM if you'd like to have a look at it over the weekend. (y)

Nope. It was mainly used for playing Elder Scrolls Online. It couldn't keep up when I got a 4K screen in a Black Friday deal.

Thanks! I'll take a look at those.

Hi all, My E7440's battery has died - it is swollen quite badly, and I've decided to remove it permanently for safety's sake. Where are good places to shop for a replacement? I don't mind too much buying 3rd party, but the quality between 3rd party products can vary significantly. Buying an...

Thanks. The reviews does look good, but since the price is by far the best I could find, and the supplier has stock, I prefer to make sure that I'm not missing some obvious reason to avoid it. I'm not very up to date on GPUs, so I make up for my ignorance by asking questions when I'm uncertain...

You're right, Wootware has it for 11k. I'll update my OP when next I'm at a PC.

Wootware has stock of the Palit GTX 1080 Ti. With higher end cards being fairly scarce and Wootware's price seeming to be fairly good (11k), is there any dark and dready reason that this card at a good price is not grabbed up immediately? I'm keeping my eyes open for good prices as I might...

I'm looking for a docking station for an E7240. I'm in Pretoria, so ideally I'm looking here. It must be complete - it must have its power supply. I see that they go for about R150-R200 on OLX; there are a couple in JHB, but not in PTA.

So either I have to get hold of a newish one that already has the memory and storage I want, or I have to go for a 2012 model (might be the better option, I'm not too worried about a retina display) and budget for RAM, an SSD and probably a battery.

I don't have it yet - I'm still trying to figure out whether it will be worth it to get it. Its the one offered by Telkom Mobile - as far as I know it is the 2015 model. What MB Pro do you have? I would like to (eventually) have at least 8 GB RAM and an SSD, so I'd be looking at models that...

I can get an entry level Macbook Air on my mobile contract at an fairly affordable price. What would a realistic reselling price be? The unit will still be in its sealed box, but it would obviously be secondhand. Specs: Apple MacBook Air 13.3 inch Camera: 720p FaceTime HD camera Display: 13.3...

I'm using one as a personal machine at work, and the other one occasionally at home if I need a laptop for some reason. If I could sell both for something, I'd use the money to buy myself an old upgrade. However, if they're both basically worthless, then I'd rather keep them, as they still...

I have two old HP laptops that I'm thinking of selling. Both are still working, but the batteries are showing their age (might last a bootup, but I'm not too sure), and both have issues with their optical drives. Both will basically come as a laptop with charger - no OS included. HP nx6325...
