This is a compensated review by BlogHer and Intel.
Having a brand new laptop has been so great! I am thrilled with the speed and how this new processor with the Intel chip makes my blogging life easier. You know how it is when a computer can’t keep up?! That’s not a problem with my fancy new machine.
My little office nook gets a good workout every single day! You can see here that it’s not picture perfect all the time. There’s work to be done. 🙂
As I mentioned, I do a lot of photo editing. That is a breeze and the speed is lightening fast. Connection speed is great, as well as getting things done in a timely manner. I also use my computer to store spreadsheets, do Word documents and definitely needed the storage space for my thousands of pics that I have saved. Those pics need lots of room to spread out.
I also do some room consultations and need to be able to move around the web, gathering pics and getting ideas saved. I can open lots of windows and switch back and forth with the sweep of my mouse. I love that this computer has twice the memory that my little netbook has. It’s definitely going to keep me on task with blogging and other areas of my life.
This cool feature would be great to use for movies, checking out family pics online. Can you imagine sharing your family photos on a big screen like this?
Now, after sharing how the laptop has improved my work life balance, you know the great news! I’ll be giving away a $250 Best Buy giftcard for ONE of my readers. I’m so excited to share this with all of you and can’t wait to see someone else benefit from the giveaway.
YES, you can sign up AGAIN, even if you signed up on the 1st giveaway post. Double your chances!!
I totally and completely love my new laptop!
Here is some more info on the Intel Core processor family. Visit Intel for more information:
- Smarter processors that deliver extra performance whenever you need it, and increased energy efficiency when you don’t.
- Features 4-way (and 8-way) multi-task processing that allows each core of your processor to work on two tasks at the same time— that’s Intel® Hyper-Threading

How would getting a new Intel Core processor laptop help your day to day life??
I would use it to take classes online (i’m about to graduate), manage my outlook calendar and emails, surf blogs for giveaways, read up on my daily celebrity blogs and find receipes to test. Create to do lists and honey do lists. My current computer keeps crashing on me. I have lost all my work and had the harddrive replaced twice It was only 7 months old when it first crashed!
I’d use it every day to read blogs, organize and edit photos, and play games with my kids. I’d also be taking it to class with me.

It would make video chatting with the grandparents so much easier! They live so far away and the kids hardly ever get to see them.
well, my hubby & i could finally stop fighting over the computer!
This is a great giveaway to use for Christmas shopping!
These amazing objects allow me to climb into their screens, explore, connect and visit with the world.
My old laptop is limping along on its last leg… a loyal companion indeed, but one that will face retirement soon…
How would I use a laptop……I will be starting college this January. I have decided it is time to go back to school and follow y passion (marine biology and sea turtles)~
It would help having two computers! That way hubby & I can use it at the same time instead of trying to compete with each other!
I would actually give the card to my husband to buy a new laptop! I got a new laptop last year and LOVE it and he has a desktop computer that is in great decline (it’s 8 years old!!!) It would be great for his every day use – especially checking up on his fantasy football teams 🙂
My husband and I wouldn’t have to compete for the “good computer” anymore. He could have it and I would keep the new laptop for myself. 🙂
I am a tech wanna be guru, but I only have a netbook and a desktop that moves slower than molasses, so I would love the opportunity to get this gift card and get a computer.
Peace, Love and Chocolate

Who doesn’t love Best Buy!?
You could always use a little extra for best buy!
With a fast laptop, I would so be able to get the house cleaned up with so much more time! (Of course, that’s a lie, I’ll just lay around and relax!)
I need the turbo boost technology….my computer is a dinosaur and I can barely have more than one application open at time or the thing shuts down! Boy could I get a lot done with turbo boost!
