For what OP is doing he doesn’t need anything but a $300 laptop. 8gb of RAM. Processor really doesn’t matter either because he’s mainly web surfing. Even using ThinkOrSwim for stock trading will be perfectly fine on a lower spec system.
OP, keep in mind that people (in this thread too) pay $1000 for iPhones just to only know how to use social media and browse the web instead of getting a $200 phone (that includes an older iPhone; like a 8s+ being $100 right now through Cricket, which runs the same exact OS as a $1000+ iPhone 11 or whatever) that suits their needs. They pay $1000+ for Macbooks/Surface Pros to again, only know how to use social media and web browse, so please don’t listen to these dudes talking about you need a $800 laptop to do what you want to do

I got the Swift 3. I like it a lot for what it is. Slim, practical, quick, well built, backlit keyboard...
I just feel like I paid too much for it at $570. Most of the reviewers on YT got it for less.
Today, finally, I found a link from a reviewer that was still valid. So I bought the Lenovo Flex 5 for $600 off Amazon.
I'ma send this one back because for $30 more I get much more bang for the buck.
Unless...I can find this one for 500 or less, then I'll just cop that.
Anywho, here's the link

If that is truly all you're doing, look at a Chromebook off Amazon. Sort by price & 5 stars only. You won't be able to download any software but most brokers have online websites nowadays anyways
