Jefferson Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 if you aint going to game, edit videos / do cpu demanding stuff and going to use it for general use like your said, yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaian Posted September 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Nice nice. eBay deals got them going for £270. Gonna grab one then. My old laptop needs to be saved. It's working fine but use it for so much stuff. Need a second one to save the life on the first one a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Gayle Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Save up, get a MAC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jefferson Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 naah u could still edit but it would take TIME to process and render down a video. if your going down the editing round, get like a i3/i5 with a semi decent gpu/gfx but its no point if your going to edit the odd 1 or 2 videos down the line.
