    My New Laptop ... Good?




    Hey whats up NGU?! BlazeAlot here, i just purchased a brand new laptop and i want to get the opinion from some people here at NGU with a bit more "computer knowledge than me".... I don't know much about laptops/notebooks but the sales rep at the store seemed to like it and recommend it as a buy. Although i seem to think sales reps are scammers and just tell you what you want to hear??


    Anyways below is some info i found on he notebook i got, and some pictures i found also. Please give me some feedback and let me know if this was a good choice, or if i was just talked into a random machine? :eek:

    ANYONE who can let me know if this was a good choice or now its much appreciated, and i will return the favor with a thanks, and +REP! :420:

    Thanks a bunch! The notebook came with a "FLiP Video Recorder" (records 2 hours) that u can hook up to it and upload the videos. Also it came with a CD for a one year licensed virus software. So i installed it, its called "Anti Virus-Plus" : Hope it does good. :bro:

    Thanks again for the words my friend.
