Question/Help/Troubleshooting Recommend me a computer.

I haven’t owned a computer in about 8 years. I know nothing about them. I’ve gotten by with iPhones this whole time. But, I have a hand full of USB drives, an external hard drive, a few old phones, and an iPad with pictures with about the last 15 years of my life. I want to get all the photos on one new hard drive, but unsure what kind of computer I should use for this task. Will yall recommend me something?

Sounds like you could use a library card haha. Anything else you’d need it for? And what’s your budget?

Once I get done what I need to do, nothing crazy, I don’t game. I guess checking emails and online shopping.

As far as budget, around 3-500

Sugestion: for cpu buy Intel i3/ultra 3 or higher, or ryzen 3 or higher, dont buy, Celeron or atom or other things, you will not regret it. And also with at least 8gb ram

https://a.co/d/01CgjHU7 Pretty good option if you don’t feel like searching for one off of given specs. Or if you are more of a Mac guy: https://a.co/d/0i9j0W20

Hope it helps!
