Either way, homework aside, I need a new PC and I see one for $500 to $600, maybe $400.

I’ll post what I said elsewhere:

I need:

At least $400, maybe more, for a good PC so I can do my homework.

…I lost mine. I am typing from my tablet as we speak. And it sucks. Genuinely sucks. Ugh.

Cash app is:

P.S. But yeah, like I said, I really fucked up my PC, err, accidentally. It’s… Yeah. I 2as planning to switch to a new one for about $600 and I may be able to scrounge up what I have to get on3 quickly, but I’m… going to need some help. Thank you all kindly. 🙏🙏

    If you really need a computer and don’t have the budget for one that costs $600, then don’t get a $600 computer. There are plenty of old office PCs on eBay that you can get for less than $100 and they should be fine for only homework. Just search for “Office PC” on there. This is not the place to be asking for money, but I hope you find something that fits your budget and that university goes well.

    Tell me that someone has mentioned resting this system with a Linux distro? Wouldn’t that resolve the problem?

      I tried to install a Linux distro but I was unsuccessful. That’s how I ended up in this problem.

    Call me crazy, but universities have libraries and labs with computers that any student can use to work on assignments.
