laptop question

by DepthBySoul - 6/16/12 3:53 AM

ive asked this before but as i'm researching and such i'm learning quite a bit so here i am again asking for you guy's personal opinion on this laptop setup. what do you guys think this thing can do and what you would get over individual parts as well as why if you wouldn't mind.

(what do you guys think it can do? websurfing, downloading, gaming. the whole package haha. i want to know details on what a laptop with this hardware can do from you guy's personal experiences. because i know somebody has got to have a laptop they can compare this hardware to)

All these high end machines are plagued with shorter life spans. If you are OK with that, why not?

2 years is much more than i intended it to last for. im getting the buyback plan and will probably upgrade within a year anyhow once i get a few more thousand dollars in the bank. so if this will be top of the line for about 2 years then i am happy. thanks again cnet forums for your fast user responses haha.
