Yes, it's a solid score for your Pentium.

For a $250 laptop, you’d likely find something basic—like a Celeron processor, an emmc, and a small 11-inch display that barely functions. On the other hand, a $250 budget lets you assemble a more capable desktop with an i5, SSD, and maybe a refurbished graphics card, though GPU availability is still limited.
A solid laptop can really last a long time. My Lenovo IdeaPad feels and looks brand new after about three years. Mostly because it’s built with aluminum and has a great screen. Unfortunately, the specs weren’t great and it’s pretty outdated now—just 2-core/4-thread i5 + MX940. After installing Windows 10 updates, it slowed down a lot, but switching to Windows 11 made it fast again for everyday tasks.
Yeah, basically "HOW FAST IS MY COMPUTER" "it's OK for a pentium?" "BUT HOW FAST IS IT"
