From working in retail, I can tell you that a shitload of customers walk in with a ridiculously low budget and are shocked that a decent laptop costs hundreds more than they want to spend.

I still have the first 7" EeePC. That thing is adorable, but it was terrible to use. It taught me the lesson that the cheapest option can cost more in the long run. Pay more for something that you could use longer.

Biggest thing to ask is "Does it run Windows 11?" 😅

Oh man, I worked at a big box store when these first came out and I died a bit inside every time someone bought one of these.

Definitely a case of the "new product" tax. An old business laptop for the same price will match or exceed the specs of that Gateway and feel so much better to use.

That HP went right where it belongs. That shot of the camera guy (whoever was behind the camera) throwing the HP into the trash actually made a part of me happy.

Everybody Else: I couldn't imagine having that laptop!
Me: Hey that's my laptop!

Not gonna lie I loved my little HP stream when I was super poor and doing my A-Levels, it researched, did google docs and everything I needed at the time lol.

I legit had an ASUS Eee PC back in 2009. I had it for four years. Eventually, it wouldn't work unless it was plugged in which defeats the purpose of a laptop.

I had an HP Stream a while ago, when I was in university for the first time; I didn't really do a lot of particularly arduous stuff with it and it was fairly cheap (doubly so because I got it refurbished). In spite of its very tiny amount of memory (like, it struggled to store my dissertation, and that was not even 12000 words long), it worked fine for about two and a half years... until I tried to download an update, at which point, and I have literally no idea how this happened, but the RAM just disappeared? Like, it just decided that it no longer felt like having any RAM.
