hey guys! 

so im looking for a really cheap laptop, that can fold 360 degrees, as u will use it for drawing and other things, is a decent computer overall, using for school and photoshop so it should be mid range to high, and ships to canada.

I would also like to play low end games, like roblox and  maybe if you guys can find a decent one, some mmorpgs. 

Its okay if its used, i was expecting it to be.

if it has minimal damage, like  a corner crack or a dent, its also fine by me. thanks in advance.

any suggestions?

Best I can find right now is the Lenovo idea pad 3. I don’t know much about it though so it might not be the best pick. Your best bet is to look at used ones on eBay and Craigslist type apps to see what is available locally. If you find something and aren’t sure about it, post it here and people can help you decide if it’s good or not.

I’ll keep looking though and post if I find anything good.

oh sorry lol. Like an MMO world of warcraft or guild wars 2, or like roblox and minecraft. things around that area.

Most of those, you should have no problem. But for WoW it is slightly below the minimum spec for gpu. So if you turn down the settings, it should be playable just not the best experience. But Minecraft and roblox you are good. The only other issue, is storage. Games can take up a lot of space so you might want to buy an ssd (i think it takes m.2 PCIe) with a higher capacity further down the road and upgrade for more capacity.
