At mall, is this a good buy?
« on: October 12, 2012, 04:14:58 PM »
Samsung 14" laptop
Gt 640m 1gb
6gb ram
I5 quad core 2.5 ghz
7200rpm hdd

For 949$ normally it says 999$
I'm at the Microsoft store.

Otherwise was thinking MacBook air refurbished for 829 with 128gb ssd, 4gn ram, 1.6ghz i5 dual core and intel hd3000 which the apple rep said is great for gaming.

Or the MacBook pro for 1019

Its been 3 days so guessing you left the mall ...  ;D

Do they have a Microsoft Store and Apple Store in the Same Mall?   ;D

I like PC's for Gaming, Price, and not being tied to Apples control on compatible hardware/software/royalties. Also when it comes to video games in mind, I'd be very selective in picking up a laptop that can run the games without running too hot. I have cooked 2 laptops gaming. One was my own a Dell with Intel Graphics GPU, the other was the companies and we sent it back warranty replacement not telling Toshiba that I roasted the integrated GPU playing WoW.
