Depends where you live. Just look up regional PC builders and see if they do laptops. They pretty much all sell Clevo, often unbranded or you can request they don’t brand it.

eBay might be another option. Or a laptop refurbisher. I’ve picked up several refurbished Clovos over the years that were ex workstations of some big enterprise.

That’s because it is. I worked at a place that did this kind of photography for businesses years back. That steak probably got 20 seconds on each side to sear, the grill marks and caramelization painted on, the juice around it some colored glue, the steam some guy’s vape; those sorts of things.

You’d never want to eat the photography subject afterwards.

Repeating old Reddit memes seems to be a bit of a faux pas around here.

That changed on June 27, 2024. You can now have dual citizenship with any other country.
