👩‍💻 “Kim, what are your laptop and desktop recs?” I got you: 

• This HP laptop ($350) comes with a lifetime Microsoft Office license.
• I use a Dell Inspiron 3030 ($838) as my workstation in Santa Barbara.
• The battery on the latest 13-inch MacBook Air ($849) lasts 18 hours.
• Snag a Dell XPS 13 ($1,600) that can support two external monitors.
• Gamers, Asus’ ROG Strix G16CH ($1,889) is made with you in mind.
