Yeah, that's what I am leaning on; both laptops I have are i7s so no going anywhere from there but my fan is loud and the laptop is exceedingly hot, not really slow though, I mean the thing probably loads faster than newer laptops
I mean I would not upgrade the HD in the configured laptop but most already come with 750 GB to 1 TB HD anyway. I guess I should factor in the cost of windows into the new PC then, cause i think I am better off getting a computer with a HD and putting in my own SSD. Have you experienced any issues with compatability of the hardware when replacing any hard drives?
