I'm looking for a new system because I think I might want to carry
it around with me as I'm starting a partnership with my friend in
T-Shirt Designs, Customised Printing on Mugs, Caps. My system is
also slow when I edit my video, thus cannot run other programmes
while editing it.
The new Laptop that I'm interested is Acer Travelmate
3280 with the following Specification:
14.1 WXGA colour TFT LCD
Intel® Core Duo processor T2300 (1.66GHz, 667 MHz FSB, 2 MB L2
cache)
512MB DDR II RAM
ATI Mobility Radeon® X1400 with up to 256MB of HyperMemory
80GB S-ATA HDD
DVD Super Multi Double Layer Drive
2.35KG w/ Battery
The price is $2,298 now. I'm getting it from Harvey Norman because
I'll need to pay in 24 months installment. Would like to know if is
there other brand with similar or better specification but lower
cost.
Please don't come in to tell me about MAC.
Thanks
