Help, In Love With Programming But In Need Of A Laptop by oxymoron(m): 10:35pm On Sep 05, 2020
I'm a student in one of the universities in the South. Uniben to be precise.. This period has not really favored me in terms of idleness so I dcided to pick up a skill and settled to learn programing but my only issue right now is purchasing a laptop. I can't cause right now I have no source of income. I call on any nairaland programmer who can help. I'm not asking for cash in any kind just looking for anyone who can gift me an old laptop that's not in use so I can make use of it for the main time before i get mine cause time is running out.

If you can Own a phone without Opening a Thread, trust Me, You also can Own a PC without Opening a silly Thread.

No matter Your reason(s), an IDIOT like me never would make such Wise Decision.

Go to AWS and sign up for their free tier program. Get a workspace of a the cheapest price which is a windows server.
You can use the workspace with an Android phone or Ipad, chrome or whatever. Thank me later.
I currently run Windows and Linux on my Ipad. Cloud is the future

I have an old pc but I don't think I can give it out, since I still make use of it sometimes.

You can go very far using your phone.

I remember last session in UNIBEN, it was my roommate that introduced me to the Sololearn.
Well there's a high chance he can get a laptop here.
One dude that created a thread as a student and expressed worries over his age and how he has been unproductive during this lockdown, I carefully went through all the comments and found a good Samaritan that was concerned and then gifted him a laptop to use and improve on his IT and Tech skills.
I myself have just received a laptop from a nairalander here last week.
It's just basically luck

yeah same UNIBEN with you.
There's one dude that wanted giving out his laptop earlier but the battery wasn't too strong, I think just 1 or 2 hours, which means you must live around where you have constant light, so the other dude refused receiving it though.
Forgotten his moniker I'd have tagged you.
Law.. you nkor?

You don't need a laptop to start programming. I learnt how to code on my low end itel phone and that was in 2017. This post will help https://www.nairaland.com/6076083/how-setup-software-development-environment
