re: Looking for a cheap tablet/ laptop

Don't bother with a chromebook if he's a non tech-savvy windows user. Even though it would do what he needs it to do, he'll probably end up frustrated by its limitations and not being able to do the things in the same manner to which he is accustomed. Plus, I don't know what his internet situation is like at these hunting farms, but the cheap chrome books only have about 16-32gb of internal storage. They are heavily reliant on internet connectivity for storage/productivity, which means teaching him about google drive and/or other cloud solutions. He might appreciate a laptop that can do everything he needs to do with or without internet.

He needs to get a $300 laptop and the cheapest 2.5" 250gb ssd available. Swap out his hard drive with the ssd and install windows and the laptop drivers on it. I know you know how to do that.
