      @Fromage For word processing and browsing, yes. But for real work like app and web development, no. I used a really cheap laptop, cheaper than an iPad + keyboard case, back when I just started working. I'm from a poor family from a 3rd world country so it can't be helped. It's really slow but it works. You just need patience. An iPad can't do most of the things my laptop can. And honestly my phone can do most of the things an iPad can do, minus the big screen, of course.

      He's a technician because he was able to diagnose the laptop and know that all the client needed to do was to change the mechanical hard drive. The client gave him the laptop because it was freezing and booting slowly.
      He was hoping to get that fixed, that's why he gave a technician. Anything at all would have been the problem. From wrong registry files to BIOS to bad hardware. Anything
      So just because to solution was very easy doesn't mean he's a hypocrite for calling himself a technician.

    Hey, fan of the channel!
    Suggestion for the future: attach a link in the description for software or any apps that you use during your repairs/upgrades, it would really help some people out.
    Thanks and keep up the good work

      @@PhoneRepairGuru just a tip if some reason you can’t boot a pc up to clone the disc you can use an external cloner. Link Below. (It’s amazing because it doesn’t rely on software but is a bit for bit cloner device all hardware.) Great for when someone doesn’t wanna give you their password.

    Interesting thing: hp actually did make an I device. Apple had licensed the iPod brand name to HP to make a custom iPod that had less of a difference, other than just expanding the iPod market to users who knew nothing about iPods and apple.

    I also had this laptop model. From 2017 until 2021 when I bought my PC and left the laptop to my dad. While I had it I did make it some upgrades like increasing the RAM from 4GB to 16GB, putting an SSD on it, removing the CD-Reader and putting the Hard Drive there with a special tool.
