I GOT A ! THANKS GUYS

Lenovo - ThinkPad 14" Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - 120GB Solid State Drive - Black

 

Good to hear. Which model number?

TIP: Best battery runtime will be from a 9 cell battery pack. Some models don't come with a 9 cell - usually 6, some even a 3. If you plan to use it a lot in your car, I would opt for a 9 cell - unless it's a t450. The t450 has an internal battery as well.

SSD's don't require periodic defrag. Turn it off.
Windows>run>msconfig>Boot tab. Turn the timeout down to 2-3 seconds. That will speed up boot time.

Good luck

 

do you need a cd rom drive to run hp tuners pro ? or does it come on a flash drive ?

 

you download off their site. It’s not a very large file.

 

thanks for the info

 

Something with i5 or better rated processors. Clearance laptops online for good deals, I get them frequently for work. Personally I've not had great success with refurbs.
