    I learned the other day my laptop doesn’t even have a camera. I’ve never noticed in the six months of owning it.

    Excellent.

        The Asus G15 Advantage from a couple years ago has fairly high end hardware, it comes without a webcam. As an owner of one they have quirks, but can be pretty decent machines if you can find one for cheap.

        I got it on a deal. I would post the link here but that feels inappropriate. I bought it from B&H and it’s a Lenovo i5. Please note that the five has nothing to do with the Intel processor family but rather that’s just the name of the laptop.

        I wanted something that was gaming-capable but also admits to the fact that I’m mostly going to do work on the laptop. The ports are in weird locations, and it’s unnecessarily heavy, but I am pleased with it given the main purpose which was to get an effectively desktop replacement that I don’t expect to haul around that often.

        Also, if you do decide that’s a laptop that you want, play close attention to the specifications. They reuse the same laptop name. It’s actually a series of laptops that is updated every year or so and they have different build options.
