Back at it again after a string of deals, this time with I think our best yet. We have a nice batch of i7 model T470s, decent IPS 1080p screen, 14' slim and with a standard 256gb m.2 SSD for that extra storage. No ram upgrades but 8GB is plenty for office, school or day to day. Upgrade options on the SSD as well if you need that extra space. Will come with AC adaptor and windows 11 installed. We also have an ultra budget Lenovo IDEAPAD S130 Black available as well, just $99 for a basic school or day to use with SSD upgrade options available in which we'll install the OS on instead, so you'd get 128GB + 64GB for example.

Just want to make a small note as well, there was last sale a delay on certain orders so I do apologize , mix of reasons however I'm taking over admin now so if you do email or message through myself or Alessandra will be there to assist. we expect by next week the entire bigger team back from sickness so we are raring to go!

        Feel like these are better value for money than the Dell OptiPlex or HP Mini. You can use Velcro/Double-sided tape and stick them behind a TV and have a decent HTPC.

        Sucks there's no option for a decent dGPU these days, and even if you had one, no option to run it on these older devices. For Couch Gaming, you're better off going away from PC, Linux, and Android, instead get a console like PS5.

          I disagree; streaming works well if you have a decent network.

          I have a very old Intel NUC with i3 as HTPC, and it can stream FHD games using Steam without any issues. Juicier Android boxes like nVidia Shield should be able to stream even 4k stuff as well.

          • Kangal on 30/07/2022 - 15:57

            @gorgrond: I guess if you have FTTP maybe, it's still a bit finicky with quality drops and latency. I find Cloud Gaming more of a solution for portable/outdoors problem (need 5G though).

            Streaming games between rooms, doesn't have the problems of the above, but it's a very niche situation.

    How is this Windows 11 if the Intel i7-6600U is not a compatible CPU? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/min…

        After googling properly, you can install Windows 11 on an Intel 6th gen CPU, what you cannot do is upgrade from Windows 10.

          you can install Windows 11 on an Intel 6th gen CPU, what you cannot do is upgrade from Windows 10

          You can use the media creation tools WIN11? Without a hack?

          • amaslam on 28/07/2022 - 20:17

            @superforever: Yes you can. You have to do a few command line steps during the install. I've done it on 3rd Gen GPU Intel as well without a hitch.

            https://pureinfotech.com/install-windows-11-unsupported-pc/

            • superforever on 28/07/2022 - 20:22

              @amaslam: I knew that is why I asked "Without a hack?"

              It is still possible to upgrade with a hack , if you still have the first Win11 created USB disc.

              • gelilloabad on 29/07/2022 - 09:50

                @superforever: This article says yes, no hack required, for 6th and 7th gen Intel and 1st Gen Ryzen.

                https://www.hardwaretimes.com/windows-11-will-work-on-1st-ge…

                The problem is Windows 11 will state that the CPU is not supported and will possibly not support it nor ensure its stability, from the Verge:

                Microsoft reached out to tell us about one potentially gigantic catch it didn’t mention during our briefing: systems that are upgraded this way may not be entitled to get Windows Updates, even security ones. Microsoft confirmed this during an October 2021 briefing.

                  EDIT: Just tried on 6xxx Intel NUC didn't work without a hack

              • Pootie Tang on 29/07/2022 - 11:24

                @superforever: That's not a hack

                • superforever on 29/07/2022 - 11:29

                  @Pootie Tang: Have to do a few command lines and not a hack? The installation program told you your machine was not supported and won't install it.

              • amaslam on 29/07/2022 - 15:13

                @superforever: It's not really a hack. The steps basically skip some checks during the install. However it still installs Windows and all it's features. Windows Update works normally and you don't install or use apps any differently than on a 'supported' CPU.

            • ShouldIBuyIt on 29/07/2022 - 11:47

              @amaslam: Is the "hack" only to disable the secure boot/uefi? That's how I would do a clean install from USB on surface 3/4.
              When installing w11 on unsupported device, can you still get the windows updates?
              Is W11 worth the trouble upgrading a non supported device?

                can you still get the windows updates?

                Yes no problem so far.

              • amaslam on 29/07/2022 - 15:14

                @ShouldIBuyIt: It skips checks for SecureBoot, TPM and CPU but UEFI is still used as it has been in previous versions of Windows. Note older systems do have Secure Boot, TPM and UEFI as it has existed far longer than Windows 11 has.

                You still get Windows Updates working as normal, but one day MS could 'break' that for 'unsupported' CPUs as don't have to support those CPUs.

    FYI = This model has two batteries. The T480s has one so I guess it makes you wonder why they changed it.

    • ashanrath on 28/07/2022 - 18:55

      Used one for work. You could hot swap the removable battery when it got flat without shutting down thanks to the secondary internal. Useful for some people but probably wasn't worth the additional build cost for most.

    • Kommodore on 28/07/2022 - 18:52

      "Grade A

      Good cosmetic condition: the item has minimal wear, which is free from any dents, cracks or damages, but which may have few light scuffs, scratches or marks on laptop external surfaces (i.e. cover/ lid, keyboards and other areas of its design)
      Units may have light key marks on the screen which is only noticeable when the machine is off.
      Screen display has no dead pixels or white spots."

      That said I got a T480 in another deal and it looks brand new with zero imperfections or signs of use, but I'm sure it varies as some have been used more than others.

  • opt on 28/07/2022 - 22:40

    IMHO this is not very good value given the few i5-8350U based notebook deals we had recently for around the same price. E.g.:
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/715137
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/714041
    Despite being an i7 the 6600U is a dual core CPU therefore has a considerably lower CPU performance score than a quad core i5-8350U, and as noted above 6th gen CPUs aren't officially supported in Windows 11.

    If you are on the market for a sub $400 used notebook, wait for another i5-8350U notebook deal.

    • jjsnacks on 29/07/2022 - 07:13

      this is a 14 inch screen and IPS / 1080p

      a couple of those other laptops are 12 inch screens with less than 1080p

      its a little give and take depending on what features are important in regards to buying these ex-fleet laptops

      i think when a couple of the newer models finally come out of fleet lease arrangments they'll probably be $100-$200 more than what this is but for some people that enough of a bonus to wait for them

    Any suggestion/reviews for "LENOVO IDEAPAD S130 BLACK | CELERON N400 | 4GB | 64GB"? Need for kiddo for basic school use and may be some Minecraft play.

      No it only has 4GB RAM and a tiny 64GB Hard drive. After OS is installed, doesn't leave a lot of room for Programs or Files. not to mention an low end Celeron processor.
      I'd recommend a minimum of 8GB RAM, an i5 Processor & 128GB HDD (but prefer 256GB).
