Collection Specifics
My specific model is the Ryzen 5 2500U model and I originally got it with 4 GB of memory. I got it for $350 from Walmart in December 2019. This laptop has pretty decent specs, after upgrading some of the original components.
Operating System
Originally, this laptop came with Windows 10 Home. I have since upgraded it to Windows 11 Dev Insider Preview, which works officially without any extra hackery, despite the Ryzen 5 2500U not being officially supported on Windows 11.
On December 7, 2023, I decided to replace Windows 11 on this laptop with Kubuntu. I wanted a somewhat decent laptop with Linux on it to play around with. I went with Kubuntu mainly just because I wanted to mess with theming on KDE Plasma.
Hardware
This laptop originally came with a 1 TB hard disk drive, which I upgraded quickly to a 256 GB ADATA SSD because Windows 10 is a terrible experience on a spinning disk.
This laptop also originally came with only 4 GB of memory, which I finally upgraded to 16 GB of G-Skill memory on February 16, 2023.
