> For one, PCs still make it there via ewaste shipments that then get repaired and sold for cheap, so you can have decent variety of old stuff.

No you can't. Unlike you, I'm talking from experience when I'm telling what €50 gets you in used marked in a non-developed country.

Just today I got a 15 year used laptop in a "developed country" (Germany) for €30. Windows 10 works in a VM. It did come with Windows 11, but I wiped that. What are you all arguing about?

Btw, I also got a Celeron laptop you were talking about, I got it for free.

  • I'm arguing that you can't find a laptop with 8th gen CPU for €50 in a developing country because used electronics (or simply all electronics) prices are much higher. I thought I was very specific about that.
