So, my work laptop that I do all my art on is beginning to worry me. I mean, it's like 6 years old. While if it just completely fails out of the blue, I DO have CSP on my gaming pc, but I don't want to use my gaming pc as my main work space either.

It's going to be some time, least a few months before I can comfortably buy a new computer. I start work again on Jan 2nd, so my 1st paycheck will be around the 23rd ish. Fortunately with having more roommates now, it's a lot easier to save money.

Anyways, It's been like 3+ years since I last shopped for a new computer. Wouldn't mind some recommendations. It doesn't need to be super fancy. No apple products. Not that I have anything against them, but I don't feel like relearning how to use a computer lol No tablet/pc hybrids. I am content with my Intuos tablet. I'd say my budget will probably be around $6-800. I think RAM and storage are my main concerns and I want it to have a 17' screen. Lol I've been using a pretty basic Dell for 6 years. I just want some ideas to consider for a few months.
