##[24]wife’s laptop #Z399

Why so much cheaper than expected $1000+? See ##[24]delightful tech hav`+ve impact@%%personal life

— microsoft account.. To enable Office365, shop had to create a microsoft acccount zhanglihuizofia@outlook.com. They promised that we don’t need to re-enter password.

Based on what I see so far about microsoft account, I much prefer a local account. Shop said after Office365 expires in a year, we can stop using this microsoft account.

— disk hogs .. I have reduced total SSD usage to 44GB according to SSD”Properties” applet. I assume 70GB free storage is insufficient for wife. Shop suggested offline storage like USB drive.

I have removed many unnecessary bundled apps in front of the shop salespeople, but many of them returned.

— facts

  • Tradensync
  • Lenovo $399… named Z399?
  • 1Y official warranty
