It won’t be long before Black Friday deals return, and bargain hunters will have more than they can handle. If you are planning to take advantage of the annual shopping holiday to snag a budget laptop, Walmart Black Friday deals will be a good place to start.

You don’t have to wait until November 27 though, as some Black Friday laptop deals are already available. If you’re on a budget, you may want to consider Black Friday Chromebook deals, such as Walmart’s $100 discount for the Lenovo S330 Chromebook that brings the laptop’s price down to $199 from its original price of $299.

The Lenovo S330 Chromebook features a 14-inch anti-glare display that’s perfect for both working on documents and streaming your favorite shows. The laptop is powered by a quad-core MediaTek processor with 4GB of RAM, which is enough for daily use for school or work, and Lenovo promises up to eight hours of battery life so you won’t have to worry about running out of juice while you’re on the go.

The laptop is called a Chromebook because it’s powered by Google’s Chrome OS, which ditches installed software in favor of web-based apps that open on the Chrome browser. The laptop only has 32GB of eMMC storage as you will be mostly working on the cloud, but if you need extra space, its storage is expandable through a microSD card. Chromebooks require an active internet connection to maximize their capabilities, but the trade-off is low overhead for quick startups and snappy performance.

If you are in the market for a budget laptop, the Lenovo S330 Chromebook may be your perfect companion. It won’t match up to high-end gaming laptops, but for a device that can perform basic tasks while providing some entertainment options, it’s already a steal at its original price of $299. However, Walmart is offering the Lenovo S330 Chromebook at $100 off to lower its price to $199, in a deal that’s hard to ignore. There’s no assurance that it will be cheaper once Black Friday arrives, so if you want to have the laptop as soon as possible, and to avoid the chaos, you should click on that Buy Now button as soon as you can.

Buying a monitor? This Mac app can expose problems before the return window closes
Your new monitor may look perfect, but it doesn't hurt to double check.
Screen Test v1.1

Making a brand-new tech purchase doesn't always carry the guarantee of a perfectly functioning unit. But a tiny Mac app called Screen Test can help you find a defect before it gets too late. Screen Test (version 1.1) is a native macOS utility containing more than 25 patterns and diagnostic tools for evaluating built-in and external displays. It can help reveal dead or stuck pixels, backlight bleeding, and other issues. The app works completely offline, so you don't have to rely on browser tabs or an internet connection.

Every pixel gets scrutinized

The old internet built a museum for dying tech sounds, and it’s somehow still alive
The wonderfully dated site has outlasted many of the noisy gadgets it was created to preserve
Camera, Electronics, Art

Before our gadgets became silent glass rectangles, they complained constantly. Dial-up modems screeched through every connection, while dot-matrix printers sounded like they were slowly chewing through the desk.

The Museum of Endangered Sounds keeps that irritating soundtrack alive. It first appeared in 2012, but the site is still online 14 years later, inviting visitors to hear technology that has mostly disappeared from everyday life.
