▶ Buying your laptop

When you go out to buy something new and scary, like a computer or floor-vacuuming robot, it helps to know two things. First, it helps to identify what you want to do with the new thing. Second, it helps to know as much as possible about what you’re buying.

For a laptop, you probably want freedom and portability, if not the social status that comes with being a smart, handsome laptop owner. For a floor-vacuuming robot, the only thing that you mustn’t do is alter its programming so that it suddenly becomes hellbent on enslaving your family. Therefore, comparatively speaking, buying a laptop is far less risky.
