First of all, this is not criticising or taking a cheap shot or really political at all. I am fascinated that a lawyer uses/brings a gaming laptop to trial and I can’t help but think it was contrived as another distraction.
What do y’all think? BTW, how expensive are they generally?
You think she plays League?
Almost zero chance she is with a serious firm right now. No large firm wants Trump as a client. She’s most likely operating a little boutique firm. This happens all the time when a lawyer wants the client and the firm doesn’t due to a conflict, negative attention, etc. A handful of people and maybe an office manager with no other admin staff. There’s no IT. She needed a laptop with HDMI out for presentations in court and wanted it to be fast too. She probably went to Best Buy asking for that and walked out with a gaming laptop.
Now I’m curious why a law person would need a fast computer for their job :-)
I mean isn’t they mostly operating spreadsheets and presentations? Not like rendering 3D worlds or Spirting or something?
I mean I totally get someone want a beefy laptop and to be fair, I don’t even know what the “controversy” is about.
Trial lawyers often work with fairly large datasets and some specialized applications. There’s a ton of discovery materials for a case like this one and it’s all indexed and searchable. They will have deposition transcripts that need to be searchable so they can check them while a witness is on the stand. They will also be running presentations and playing weird video formats. They usually need a good CPU and a nice chunk of RAM because the last thing they need is a laggy computer in court when everyone is watching.
Like the case with blue origins recently, I remember something like a trial being postpone because the PDFs they sent were so big that the court system would crash.
