Hi!
I recently got enrolled into UT, and am still adjusting to the campus life. However, the buisness professors talk way too fast for me to take notes with paper, so im going to invest in a laptop.
The only problem is, ive never owned a laptop so any help pushing me int he right direction with this purchase would be greatly appreciated.
What im looking for:
-Aprox 1000$, can go over or under a bit.
-Fast
-Does not need to be a graphics macho machine, ill be doing very little gaming besides maybe wc3 which can be run by onboard I believe. (PC in the apt for gaming)
-LIGHT. UT's campus is gigantic, and only way around is walking.
-Needs to be able to compile fairly quickly.
-durable
How are the x2 turions and athlons compared to the duos in notebooks?
All comments greatly appreciated! Thanks for your time.
