let me tell you, there's little that pisses me off more than what i call the "$100 walmart e-waste laptop scam". laptop manufacturers love to make cheap plastic pieces of junk with the worst screen you could ever imagine, 2-4GB of RAM, 16-32GB of eMMC storage, and a slow CPU for around $100. they're completely useless for doing anything at all, the best use I can think for one is to hook it up to a better monitor and keyboard and use it as a DOS gaming PC.
if you want to save basically anything, you're not going to be able to because of the eMMC that i'm surprised is even big enough for windows, and you can forget about installing linux either because the storage is still too small on it to do anything legitimately useful. you can't upgrade the storage or RAM either, as it's all soldered to the motherboard.
these laptops usually sell for around $100 at stores like walmart, and consumers who know nothing about computers will buy them, wonder why it's so slow and terrible, and inevitably either return or throw them out. they come off the production line already being total e-waste, and it really annoys me to no end. it's a massive waste of resources that would only stop if idiots would stop buying them.
