Game is the difference between a broke average looking dude in a 2nd tier city turning bad bitch feminists into maids and fucktoys and a well to do lawyer with 50x the dough taking 3 dates to bang broads in philly.
All of those stores ship for free. My best bet is on ebay: deals.ebay.com
Microcenter runs better deals than TD.
My biggest issue is finding a laptop I actually like.

My 15" HP HDX 16 laptop from 2009 has been dying a slow death for about 2 years so looking to replace with a black friday deal.
I've done a decent bit of homework and as much as I don't have a lot of respect or experience with Toshiba, I'm planning to grab the one below and throw in an ssd.

Will be on sale for $699 next Thursday. Any better deals on 15" laptops (not Apple)?

I'm picking up this Asus netbook on Black Friday, the price is going to drop to $99. Been needing to replace my 2009 Netbook for some time, it's barely functioning.

Thanks, yeah I saw that deal and might pick one up as a gift or for travel. I usually try to find the best deal I can on something that will last me a number of years, hence while I still have a Galaxy S2 and a HP latop from 2009, both still working.
I'm really digging the Toshiba Satellite Radius 15" with the i7 and 8GB ram, and more than likely gonna grab it for a good deal at $699. I have some new ssd's at the house I bought so hoping it wont be a bitch to replace (not as simple as a HP). That config should last me a while, I hope.

The Lenovo Outlet store has deals year round. I bought a laptop last year right before Xmas for a good price. Then after the New Year bought a desktop. I was pleased with the prices and the product.

It seems like it would be great to pick up a variety of brand new electronics at Black Friday prices and bring them on a trip to sell. I know there's an old, underused thread on this but what are the best countries for one looking to resell electronics?
Argentina and Brazil come to mind. How about elsewhere in LA? Or Asia?

What about laptop accessories, I just bought an Acer
I need a new laptop too but I am too scared to learn how to use the new Excel, I am set in my ways with the old school version!
Consider a Windows 8 tablet, with a quad core Atom processor in all of them and 2 GB RAM, Windows 8 runs pretty fast. They're also usable with a USB dock.
Some of the 1GB RAM models are on sale for less than $100, the 2 GB ones for less than $200. There also bigger screen 10" models for less than $500 that have keyboard docks.

Is this a decent laptop? I might pick one of these up.

It's not that different dude, most of the old functions are in their same place.
The UI looks more modern though.
Hah, it brings out their more unknown functions to light. I had "oh shit, this exists?!" moments.

I went ahead and pullled the trigger on what I think is a pretty good deal on a nice laptop saving $200.
I stopped into Best Buy last night to make sure it was what I wanted and there were 10 people already in line outside 24 hours before the store opened for Black Thursday (with tents and heaters), so I'm glad to grab this in 10 minutes without leaving the house.
If you need an upgrade, grab one of these and toss in a ssd.

Any recommendations for a standard size PC(not Mac) laptop that's good for running the Adobe creative suite?
My advice is somewhat limited beccuse I don't have experience using Adobe creative suite, but I image you would need at least 8GB ram and an i5 or i7 processor with a decent graphics card and a ssd wouldn't hurt .
In terms of standard, I've always owned 15" laptops and don't enjoy using anything much smaller than a 14" so again I haven't researched those.
Depending on what you want to spend, I would look at these 3 (with last 2 being standard size to me).

^ Bruh, those specs are crazy. Speakeasy, I ran the Adobe Creative Suite software fine on my old laptop(4GB ram, quad-core amd processor) which ran me around $300-400. I'd suggest getting a laptop with >4GB ram and a good intel(anywhere from i3-i5 will do) processor, which will probably run you $300-500.
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-inspiro...cat0502000 This one is on sale for $299 and its more than capable of running whatever you throw at it.
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-pavilion-...cat0502000 Even better

Not saying it's the minimum of what he needs but that's how I buy - he might be different. I go 3 years between upgrades so I'm willing to spend an extra $200 to get higher end plus he can save $200 to $300 buying today or tomorrow. My laptop right now has held me since 2009.
The last two were right at $500-$600

Good luck speakeasy- time to see the family for a bit.
I agree with the thinker, if you're going to spend 400 or 500 bucks on a laptop, just spend another 200-300 and future proof yourself.
4gb is minimal nowadays, with 8gb being preferred. In 2-3 years 4gb will be obsolete, it's starting to become obsolete nowadays.

SSD and RAM are where it's at.
AMD processors are cheaper and just as good as intel.

AMD is a 300c while Interl is a Bentley Continental GT.
They're as different as China and the US.
16GB Ram and a SSD is where it's at.
