I just couldn't live with 64Gb myself, im already pushing my 120Gb HHD on my laptop now lol. Guess im in the abnormal group since i use my laptop to torrent and convert videos. Especially since my desktop is still running at 1.6Ghz 1Gig of ram. And it travels with me everywhere so the more space the better.


What do you think of the limited write capacity of these SSD's though? Although there supposed to last a couple years, i still don't like that probability.
The technology has improved a lot. I think the new drives last much longer.

I would say if you getting a laptop get something that's truly portable. Otherwise you'll end up using it like a desktop (always plugged in, always needing a surface to set it on).
Single GPU to save power and money. small screen to save power and reduce weight. The battery size is up to you. I would think having a small and a large battery would be nice. The smaller one is much lighter and makes it more portable.

Once you've experienced what its like to have a truly portable computer you'll realize how nice it is.

Also try Tigerdirect, dell outlet, and craigslist for some good deals- I would not recommend buying a used laptop of craigslist though >.> no telling what you'll get.
