Hi,
I can't decide between two laptops (specs below).
I think the question boils down to
3rd generation i5 @ 2.60 GHz or 4th generation i5 @ 1.60GHz ??
ANY FEEDBACK WELCOME.
MY MAIN PRIORITY: Business/professional (it's my livelihood); lots of Word, opening/closing docs/revisions, lots of internet screens open at the same time, downloading pdfs (not huge ones though). SECOND PRIORITY: skype (difference in camera qualities here?), occasional Photoshop, occasional Youtubes etc. NO GAMING.
Also: I don't move the machine around alot. It'll be mostly at home and be used with an external monitor (except when skyping) and external keyboard.
Finally: With either machine, I would upgrade to SSD and to 8GB.
