Starting school soon! Need laptop advice

[Moltres]

So only going to be using this laptop for browsing, and school work but I don't want a piece of shit. I can spend around $400 or so. I've heard some good things about chromebooks, but I don't know.

If you can find a cheap used 2015 MacBook Pro I would suggest that. Otherwise just browse sale stuff like bestbuy open box, amazon warehouse, reddit laptop sales, etc.

 

Personnaly i use a chromebook, but you cannot install game or window app, love it batteries life is awesome and take 3 seconds to open
