The most important item on a laptop is the Dedicated video memory, which determines the kind of softwares to be installed on a system. Irrespective though there are a lot of economically valuable skills one can use and acquire with laptop( Forex trading, Blogging, Projects, Spreadsheet, Web and software development, Programming, e.t.c). The sky is the limit to what can be accomplished.

Hi, all.

I want to get this laptop HP 8440p with my last card — it's around 80k. Though I'm having 50k cash atm, and I plan on increasing it to 60k soonest before I make a down payment by month end.

But the thing is that I am yet to use or own a laptop before. So, I don't know if this particular make is worth buying or not. I own a good android device, but I know it isn't enough to learn something good — I may be wrong.

Consecutively, I plan on learning a valuable skill with it like logo design, Adobe Photoshop, Book cover design, etc. But I don't know the best skill that would be best to learn if I should purchase it.


Pls, I need your suggestions and advice.

https://www.laptopmag.com/reviews/laptops/hp-elitebook-8440p

this is a review of the laptop when it was brand new
this laptop is from 2010
the cpu is 2 core and probably second generation
it is in the same class of the thinkpad t410
it has no gpu

imho, this laptop will only be good for basic stuff. browsing nairaland or word processing
you will have a miserable time with any graphics applications, unless you are able to install legacy/older versions of photoshop or other graphics applications

the hard drive is over 10 years old and will soon fail on you. - this is guaranteed
if you want to run , not walk or crawl windows 10, you need to max out the ram to 8gb

do not be deceived by the sleek look, this is an overpriced dinosaur and you are being ripped off by a greedy hustler

if you want to buy a laptop that will not give you pain down the line, go for one that is at most five years old

6th or 7th generation i5 or i7
ddr4 ram


check jiji to get an idea of the actual price of this laptop

check very well

i personally will strongly advise you against this.
an underpowered pc is real misery if you are a serious user.

I'd leave others to do the suggestions. Here's my advice, learning a skill (no matter how valuable) doesn't equal to making money

Learning a skill is not enough these days. You're going to compete.

So you need to also think about that angle. You can check my signature to understand what I'm saying more bro

Ignore the maximum storage line on the advert.

Laptop is a 4gb RAM, 320gb mechanical spinning hard disk drive, 1st gen intel i5 laptop. Screen is 14.1 inches. Resolution is 1366 X 768px. It was launched in 2010.

Battery lasted 4 hours when brand new on windows 7. Two hours after 12 years is fair.

You might learn basic web programming with it. You should not plan on doing mobile apps development with it as the 4gb (8gb after upgrade ) would freeze intermittently on simulator loads.

For graphics, it would be better to get a laptop with a dedicated graphics card
The laptop is 1gb dedicated. This does not have. It would load but you would spend more time and heat doing basic stuffs.

Web development. HTML, CSS, Javascript then a library after some months. Load VS Code, Download Firefox Developer Edition and you are good to go.

For graphics, i would be looking at another system in 2022.
