Elyse Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 That should be plenty for what you're going to use it for. As long as you're sure you won't be doing any 3D rendering/games on it, it should be fine! See if the screen is big enough for you before you buy it, though.

Removed #5 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 It looks good to me. I agree with the comment about the screen as 15" is a bit small for my taste ( bad eyes, what can I say! ) The other reservation I'd have is "photo" storage - 750gb is a good ( well, decent ) sized hard drive, but a lot of photos can chew it up quickly. If you're going to be doing much with photos, I'd consider an external drive for "storage" (( storing things on a "live" computer is not a good idea - one virus and you can loose everything )) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherrie-Nanook-Indy Posted September 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Thanks, I did have an external hard drive but it broke and lost like 6 years worth of photo's Im thinking an online storage might be the best idea. 15" is enough for me (i got to carry the darn thing around lol). I use it for work a lot (taking to work as I dont have a dedicated desk) but once I have finished a piece of work I email it back to myself and delete it off my laptop so that it doesnt take up space.

Elyse Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 If you want a good harddrive for external storage, I ALWAYS trust Seagate and Hitachi. More expensive, but usually my Seagates and Hitachi's last for 10+ years (with proper maintenance and defrag schedules). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 seems a tad expensive to me tbh... will do what you want it to do no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
