Comments on Trump lawyer Alina Habba's use of "gaming laptop" (lemmy.world)

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?

What I’m curious about is why does her law firm do byod?

Trump is no longer able to hire attorneys from large firms. He’s toxic to their other clients and also tends to not pay. You have to be an ideologue without any other big clients in order to work for him. From their website, she seems to be the head of a four-attorney firm.

Exactly. Attorneys leave their big firms and start their own for clients like him. No serious firm is going to take him. She doesn’t have any IT people. She went to Best Buy looking for a laptop with HDMI out and they sold her that thing.
