Hey guys,
I have been looking around the web for a while and have found just one laptop that I like, but the problem is that it is from best buy and not only am I not sure if I can upgrade what I want to upgrade (namely the processor) but I can't find any other that fits my prereqs, which are as follows (according to Maziar's sticky)
1_I have a budget that I would like to limit to about 700-900 dollars (USD) but have no issue with lower.
2_The screen size I would like would be in the 15 in. range because I see very little reason to having a larger screen then that due to the drain on a battery.
3_I have no prereqs as far as screen resolution goes. The main thing is for it to be somewhat widescreen.
4_ a decent mobile computer that is able to do some gaming.
5_I am alright with next to no battery life long as it keeps with my other prereqs.
6_I want to play some games with the laptop, such as Prototype and have the ability to play somewhat higher end games in the future.
7_I will be listening to music on this computer as well as surfing the web.
8_Storage will be more then 160GB but below way too much money
9_I am currently looking at Bestbuy which has:
- Toshiba Satellite for $450
-2.1 Ghz AMD dual core processor,
- 15.6 in screen with WXGA resolution,
-2GB ram,
-ATI Radeon 3100 video card with 256 Mb of dedicated RAM, -
256GB H.D.
10_I want to keep it as long as possible, thus something that can be upgraded would be nice.
11_I want a dual core processor, and all in all, something that won't break the bank. I have no problem with doing work on it.
12_I like toshiba, but all brands are open, long as they are not horrid.
13_I live in the U.S.
Thanks guys, sorry about being so vague on this.
