Hello all.
I have a budget of around $1,000 and was looking to get a laptop for the remaining 3 years of high school that I have. It will be used to type papers, general usage, and, of course, gaming
I was looking on eBay and found the two notebooks mentioned at the right price. I like these because of their build quality and clean looks.
I realize that the M70 is single core, and so, I was wondering if there are extreme advantages to dual-core? The M70 sports a Quadro FX 1400 (akin to the 6800) and a 2.13 GHz Pentium M, where as the D820 has a 2.0 GHz Core Duo processor and the Quadro NVS 120, which is something like a Go 7400. Both have 2GB of RAM. They both have a WUXGA screen.
I guess the compromise has to be made in one way. Either single-core, better graphics processing or dual-core, mediocre graphics capabilities.
Also, are there any other viable options for this price range, keeping in mind the uses?
