I’ve been thinking of getting a laptop to replace my desktop, but I don’t know if that’s a good idea.
So far I’ve stayed away because of money, and a lot of it was the battery time these laptops have is just a joke.
Anything under 5hours of battery time is just a total joke for me.
At my desktop I have:
- AMD 3200+ (2,00GHz)
- 1,5GB DDR400
- GeForce 6600GT 128MB DDR3 PCI-E
- 80GB + 80GB + 200GB
- 1 external IDE kit with a 20GB IDE hdd in it.
- DL DVD writer
- WiFi 802.11g
- 17’’ CRT(VGA) + 19’’ LCD(DVI)
It’s a pretty good PC so going over it with a laptop would just be a hole in my pocket for a long time.
I’m usually on MSN, WOW, Photoshop, listening to music or watching a movie. So most of these are intensive aplications.
From what I know that kills battery time.
Any pointers towards what I should look for, or change for better performance?
Anything I should avoid?
