QUOTE(=Hanxz= @ Apr 13 2010, 10:46 PM) credit card on hand still deciding on the impulse buy just look at the price comparison of both specs the difference is just the 250 HDD VS 320 HDD, and that is a freaking 1k difference. Am i looking wrongly or someone please pinch me off from lala-land, if not i'm gonna plonk down on this thingy edi  i was looking at that spec too and having the same reaction... 1k for that difference...

T_T but for ur purpose of usage is ok dy the spec... if u're so keen into i5, then better save more, take up parttime job, find sponsors and et cetera

QUOTE(mememe12 @ Apr 13 2010, 11:59 PM) i m in dilemma now.. i dunno want to buy 15inch i5 or i7... or mayb 17inch i5.. i do more in: - multitasking... open 3 to 4 browsers and each browsers having about 8 tabs. - photoshop... heavy photo editing software.. - not doing 3D - play light games.. like FIFA 10... any pro can advise? for editing purpose, bigger screen is definitely a big plus plus! also the graphic card. multitasking of course look at the RAM, and other spec too, like the processor. if u have the budget, just go for 17"
