meh..
Hey. Let me present you guys with a dillema.
My laptop is turning 4 years old.
I'm thinking about passing it to my mom and getting a new one for my birthday.
My current Samsung PC (an NP870Z) packs:
i7-3635QM
a 2gb gddr5 gpu (8870M)
8 gb of ram
512 ssd (I did that)
All in a sleek 4.5 pound aluminum unibody.
I can bring it to work when I need to.
The battery always lasts at least 4 hours (work stuff and web, not gaming) but I usually get 6.
What the hell can I buy today that still packs a punch and looks nice (not like a gaming laptop)
I posting this here cause this red thing sure ain't it...
Guru me up biatches!
Thanks
