RE: My main laptop specifications

Looks like it should be good for that :) the i3 is a nice processor and 4GB of ram should be good unless you find the programs you use, use a lot of ram, also i think it has a 5400rpm hard drive so you could always upgrade it to 7200rpm and more space too

It's up to everyone to do as they please but be aware that problems may come as a consequence. I am not sure what the worst case scenario can be
 
RE: My main laptop specifications

you're right Valentine.
I had 4 months ,or more, use the V-gen combination with the original RAM from the first time I bought a notebook. no problem.
but I think, not all notebooks can be like that.
 
Hey there,

I just saw your post here

I also wanted to ask did you try linux with the laptop? if so what distro, and did you face any problems with the hardware drivers?
