i need laptop advice.
Jul. 8th, 2008 08:21 pmi'm looking to buy a laptop which can be used for simple programs and internet.
i used to want a gaming desktop-replacement uber laptop and do away with my big pc, but i figured i would still want a desktop pc that's reliable, and just get a little portable in case of power outages or bad connection at home.
so i think maybe a UMPC (ultra-mobile pc) would be ideal, like maybe an Asus EEE or MSI Wind.
cost is a big factor, of course, because UMPCs would be cheaper. but in the long run, is it worth it to get a UMPC or just go for the big laptop?
and do you guys think it best that i buy a laptop here in the philippines, or get my parents in the US to order one there and just have it shipped here?
any thoughts or comments?
