First of all, this is not criticising or taking a cheap shot or really political at all. I am fascinated that a lawyer uses/brings a gaming laptop to trial and I can’t help but think it was contrived as another distraction.

What do y’all think? BTW, how expensive are they generally?

You think she plays League?

    I doubt any legal software requires enterprise hardware to run. You tend to go through those companies because they have the support structure setup for enterprises, otherwise the majority of what people do on their computers is pretty hardware agnostic, especially with how much is web based these days.

    Also with the shortages over the past couple years just getting any laptop matters more in many cases than getting a specific laptop. At the same time, at least learn to turn off the RGB for a business environment.

      You’re not wrong, legal software doesn’t require special hardware to run, but when your PDF editor with its document management system plugin no longer displays more than 2 pages when viewing them in outlook’s attachment preview and it’s seemingly related to dpi and the monitor, it’s helpful if you are using hardware that is used by many other law firms with a similar combination of hardware and software.

      Anyone in legal IT, or even other lawyers, would laugh at you for using a gaming laptop.
