Decent laptop?

[shaian]

I'm on my phone. Couldn't find laptop thread.

Is this a decent laptop for 300?

Looking for a new laptop to really just use for downloading. Internet and every day general shit

if you aint going to game, edit videos / do cpu demanding stuff and going to use it for general use like your said, yeah.

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.

Actually. What If I wanted to edit video?

[Da Luv Doc]

You will need a £700+ lappy.

Save up, get a MAC

[Jefferson]

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.

4GB won't that handle video ok?

[shaian]

planning to get a mac around june/july time when have to upgrade some other stuff.

for now this is just illustrator, internet, and the odd video, i have a hd video camera but never used it, obviously id like to edit some the ome videos. im not looking to shoot no freestyle videos of the man dem. haha.

seen something real similar to the original one i posted but with 4gb ram but can upgrade it to 8. thats got to be plenty for medium usage.
