Açıklama:

Want a “hacker” laptop without wasting cash? In this candid breakdown with OTW, we cut through the hype and show you what actually matters for learning pentesting in 2025: prioritising RAM over flashy GPUs, picking VMware (free for personal use) for reliable labs, using refurbs/minis/Raspberry Pi, and planning for where wireless hacking is going (Bluetooth/BLE/Zigbee) — not just Wi‑Fi. We also cover AMD vs Intel vs Apple M‑chips/ARM for Linux VMs, when cloud cracking makes sense, and why daily practice beats buying gadgets. If you’re delaying until you can afford a $2–3k laptop, don’t. Start now, learn daily, and upgrade later. 0:00 - Coming up 01:21 - Proton VPN sponsored segment 03:16 - Get started and start learning 08:39 - Computer specs: CPU, GPU, RAM & Hard drives 16:46 - Time vs Money 17:58 - Virtual machines 19:15 - Computer specs overview 22:17 - Wi‑Fi adaptors for Wi‑Fi hacking 24:17 - Bluetooth dongles for Bluetooth hacking 26:57 - "80% Person & 20% Machine" 29:17 - Do you need hacking gadgets? 31:57 - Apple vs Intel vs AMD 35:53 - Learn hacking with a smartphone 37:01 - Learn hacking with a Raspberry Pi 39:32 - Kali Linux vs ParrotOS (Which OS to use?) 40:58 - The problem with Chromebooks 42:02 - Using Hack The Box/TryHackMe // Conclusion
