The laptop is real, but only in the sense that it exists, which does not by itself prove much. Nothing from the laptop has revealed illegal or unethical behavior by Joe Biden as vice president, especially with regard to his son's tenure as a director for Burisma. It is also possible that only copies of a laptop were examined, instead of the actual laptop.
Analysts have found that many people other than Hunter Biden had repeatedly accessed and copied data on the hard drive for nearly three years; they also found evidence others had written files to the drive both before and after the New York Post first reported on the laptop in October of 2020. During this time, someone had also created six new folders on the drive, including with the names "Biden Burisma", "Salacious Pics Package", and "Hunter Burisma Documents". Analysts also found evidence someone may have accessed the drive contents from a West Coast location days after The New York Post published their stories about the laptop.
Obviously, tampering has been an issue since before the NYP first brought the laptop to the public's attention.
No forensic analysis of the laptop can now prove beyond a reasonable doubt that there has been illegal or unethical behavior by Joe Biden as vice president, or Hunter Biden as director for Burisma.
