Ok here is my dilemma ive been looking into getting a laptop. It would be great to bring on trips use when i go home and for when i go to college (just working now saving up, might be able to afford it if i stopped buying gadgets and computers ) but i dont want to spend alot on it so i found a Dell Vostro laptop specs are as follows.
Vostro 1500
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T5470 1.6GHz
Vista Home Basic (Id install XP SP2 promply)
15.4 inch Wide Screen XGA LCD
1GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz
160G 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive
8X CD/DVD DL Burner
256MB NVIDIA® GeForce™ 8600M GT
and the rest of the standard stuff 5.1 audio, wireless ect.
Pretty decent specs especially for $750 (before shipping and maybe taxes?)
Now the dilemma for $100 dollars more i could upgrade my rig (first in the sig) to the following
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.40GHz
ASUS P5W DH DELUXE
G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM 800Mhz
EVGA GeForce 8800GTS Superclocked 320MB
Now the upgrade to the PC is going to happen its just a matter of time (my plan is sometime in the next 4 months)
What do you guys suggest i do?
