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

I would make it so my computer stuff was done faster so i would have more time for other things
By working more efficiently

Just knowing that it would not get “stuck” as I switch between things….awesome.
It’s faster, so maybe, just maybe, I could have time to cook dinner!

I t would run faster and more efficient than one I use so I could be more productive with my work. Thank you for a chance to win!
A faster processor would definitely help me in the game-playing realm!
I could become even more of a multi-task queen! I have a home based business and I always have multi windows open at one time. This makes my current laptop run very sluggishly – so I would love one of the newer, faster Intel processer.
I would do home office stuff on it, along with surfing the web.
A faster processor will help my daily PC tasks run faster!
multi-task
The quicker processor would give me more time to do other things. Right now my pages take forever to load and I’m stuck here waiting on them. I might actually have a little bit of time to do my toe nails or something decadent like that. lol Thank you!
Wait, loading loading loading… OMG I would love to not wait around for my 2 year old netbook to load every photo to my blog and family sharesite, I have better things to do like take more pictures.
I am the picture taker in the family so I love working with them and giving gifts of pictures ,making books so it would be amazing to work on them and load without the computer freezing up!!
Thanks

It would certainly speed things up around here! A faster laptop would cut down on a lot of waiting for pages to load.
