- 14 Feb 11, 21:08#239272Today I have spent the day pricing up a new computer, weighing up the pro & cons of buying a laptop versus building a desktop, I think I will stick with the laptop for now, my 3 1/2 year old laptop is showing it's age now, time for something newer, I want to steer away from HP this time, my current laptop is a HP and the touchpad doesn't work, the keyboard no longer wakes up with the computer after hibernation and my soft touch media controls no longer work, but the rest still works.
I will be voiding the guarantee as soon as it arrives, going swap out the 4GB installed RAM for two 4GB SODIMMS, 4GB will probably be enough but I tend to run a dozen applications at the same time which relies on a good amount of RAM, plus 4GB of RAM is only $50 right now, get it while it's cheap!
