Hello everybody, will yall please help me decide on a laptop. I have been searching for about 2 weeks now to find the best laptop I can for the money. I am about to graduate college and do not know what I am going to do for a career, but am ready to purchase a laptop that will allow me to do almost anything I need it for. I mainly want a powerhouse that is still asthetically pleasing. I dont do much gaming, so a dedicated graphics card is not needed. The best one I have found is this:
Toshiba Satellite M505-S4980
Intel Core 2 Duo P7450 (2.13 GHz, 1066 MHz, 3 MB L2 Cache)
Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)
4GB DDR2 800MHz memory
14" widescreen
HD TruBrite LED Backlit display
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD
500GB HDD (5400 rpm)
Slot-Loading DVD SuperMulti (+/- Double Layer) with Labelflash
Backlit keyboard
Realtek® 802.11b/g/n wireless LAN
Webcam and microphone built into LCD bezel
harman/kardon® stereo speakers
Li-Ion (4800mAh, 6-Cell)
1-ExpressCard™ Slot
2-USB (2.0), 1-eSATA/USB (2.0) combo port with Sleep and Charge
HDMI-CEC output port
I have found this laptop for a little over $800+tax, which is the most I am able to spend. Please let me know if this is a good machine for the price or if their is a better computer out there for the money. Thanks for everyone's input, and please be quick because if I am buying this toshiba I need to do it soon before they run out.
