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
This is a sponsored post with BlogHer and you’ve already heard the GREAT news! I will be giving away a $250 giftcard to Best Buy for one of YOU and there are other chances to win on the round-up page below. Be sure and sign up at all of them to maximize your chances.

Getting a new Intel Core processor laptop would help my day to day life by helping me get my work done so that I could then play!
This would help me because my kids could get through with their homework faster and let me have my computer back.

A new laptop would be so great- mine is SO slow and exasperating! A new one would help me get through my blog hopping much faster- ha!
I would use the Intel Processor to help with my own writing and blogging – I need a fast connection and the turboboost feature seems like the perfect solution!
A faster processor would stream movies and downlosad audio books faster so I could do other things. That would help me.

It would speed up my e-mailing and photo-editing processes so I could have more time for fun!
I do consulting work from home and one of the programs I use is really taxing on my computer. It would be so nice to have a faster processor–no more overheating, crazy whirring fans of impending doom, and crashes!
That turbo-boost would help me load pictures faster, while playing my music and reading through all my blogs! Multi-tasking!
with the hyperthreading I would be able to work on several things at once instead of waiting for the computer to catch up with me, so I can actually be done online before baby wakes

I could get the bills paid faster online so I could have more time with the kids! Thanks for the fabulous giveaway!
My daughter would get her homework done quicker and then hubby can search craigslist!
I have a netbook right now and the faster speed of this laptop would help me get things done so much faster. Thank you!

Faster is always better. A new laptop with a faster processor would allow me to multi-task better and keep more tabs open to get things done faster!
