Why no bottom vents? so it doesnt heat up when its on your stomach/ lap?
I bought a Acer aspire 5 slim ryzen 3 AMD vega, on amazon they are $350 but i bought a refurb one they $80 cheaper! it was brand new literally, not even 1 fingerprint on it.

Looks nice, classic design. Just too big for me, 14 inch screen is my personal maximum. I started into the notebook era with these 9-inch vaio's, when i did a lot of wifi/lan packet sniffing on the road, settled with 12/13 inch screens for a long time, but my aged eyes need 14 inch for full-HD to save me from headaches...

Yep. The old couch/blanket issue. The Acer models from 2017, based on the Swift aluminum cases, are my go-to reference. Good work, no bottom vents, good battery life, nice non-glare screen, sufficient for indoor use. I really consider getting a used one as replacement for my wife's Swift3 (screen flickers, old Acer problem with the crappy display connector on the sub-board).

I'm looking for a new laptop atm too... want something really slim... I'm an Intel guy (last time had an AMD CPU back in 486/Pentium 1 times it was crap so I sticked with Intel ever since) Defo no Apple products for... reasons... Perhaps DELL? Any solid and stylish models?

Haha, all of us are secretly still PC Nerds I always was. Not a single non-custom built workstation in my house until date. Remember the old days when my neighbors rang the doorbell to ask about the humming noise that kept them from falling asleep. I pushed the door fully open and they saw my four development servers in the wardrobe. Had to watercool them. Since then it's only low noise builds for me EDIT: 1996, before virtualization became the thing. Why no bottom vents? so it doesnt heat up when its on your stomach/ lap?

Any solid and stylish models? Dell got good reputation for offering long time support. You'll get spare parts for at least 10 years. (Or seven years, if i confused that with IBM, now Lenovo). Quality went down over they years a bit, because high integration and all, but Dell's should still be pretty good. I'd go for a XPS13.

So thin and reasonably priced Core i7 config as well... not sure if I want a 8GB vs 16GB RAM yet...

Watch your mouth. My family can trace its unbroken Intel usage back to 1745. My grandparents and parents met at a chip foundry. I was born in a clean room and I shat thermal paste for my first 18 months.

Which manufacturer? Mind to share the disk sector size and count, too? And did you already patch and configure the firmware?

It was a WD My Book Duo with two 14 TB reds. They were immediately whipped out and rammed into me NAS. It's now being refilled with my real time rail journey videos. I tend to point the camera towards the carpet as the changing light and the sound of the train, plus passenger coughing, lulls me to sleep.
