I need a new laptop just to acquire and manage the files. My current ancient POS can’t handle them (and I can’t do things like use Resilio or other programs that would be much more convenient than begging someone to set up a special link just for me). It can barely handle downloading the 1080p files (and you can forget about actually playing them on it!)
Plus I need a new laptop for other things too. Just been waiting a very long time for a raise that is finally in the works.
