A working laptop for Liam's online degree in Oakland

A modest, working laptop is all that stands between Liam and a full online workload.

Oakland
I'm Liam, a graphic design student in Oakland. My laptop broke 4 months ago and I've since been writing assignments and sitting online exams on my phone - it's slow, my work gets lost, and I'm falling behind. I'm looking for a used laptop with at least 8GB of RAM and a working battery, or any laptop that can run a browser and word processor reliably. I can cover shipping if you can send it, or collect in Oakland. I'll take great care of it and be sure to share how my studies go. If you want to upgrade your own and have an old one in a drawer, you could make a big difference. Glad we found this place.

    I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.

    Keep going, Liam. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Pune.

    • Evelyn K. Newman

      Stay strong, Liam. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Oakland.

      • Álvaro E. Campos

        Hang in there, Liam. Gave what I could, wish it was more. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.

        • Nitin J. Gaikwad

          So sorry you're going through this, Liam. Shared it with a few friends. Take care.

            Hope things get better soon. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

            • Stephanie F. Meyer

              Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Blessings.

                  So sorry you're going through this, Liam. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Mumbai.

                    You're not alone. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best!

                    • Naveen N. Agarwal

                      Stay strong, Liam. Shared it with a few friends. After 23 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
