A working laptop for Michael's online degree in Oakland
Michael is studying software engineering on a phone; a used laptop would let Michael do assignments properly.

I'm Michael, a software engineering 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Thanks for sharing this, Michael. Shared this with my family. Blessings
It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Bursa donated after I showed her your page. All the best!
you're not alone. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Munich.
hope it all works out, Michael. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Sending love, Michael. Shared it with a few friends.
Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Greetings from Aurangabad.
Sending love. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Oakland
Rooting for you, Michael. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
Sending good thoughts, Michael. Study hard!
thanks for sharing this. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Thanks for sharing this. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Michael. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Oakland.
