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

It would speed up my downloads so I could get my work done faster [email protected]
It would help my life because it would add so many extra hours to my day. Right now, my computer is as slow as it gets!
Anything that runs faster so I can go faster is a 2 thumbs up for me. I will be able to breeze through e-mails and forum posts so I can get my everyday things done quicker. Then I can sit back and sip wine for the rest of the afternoon. Not really.

That fancy laptop would help my life by enabling me to do more than one taskat a time
it would help greatly, i wouldnt have to use my husbands…like now and all day!!
I have an ancient PC that’s running on it’s last legs and a new laptop would definitely help me get work and school work done faster!
It would help because then my computer wouldn’t slow me down when I am running several different programs at once and I could get things done quicker on my computer. Thanks!
This would speed up entering sweeps and give me leisure time for reading or watching a good movie.
This would speed up my sweeps and allow me time for more relaxing endeavors.
This would help me as my computer is as slow as a turtle sled riding on a slick of molasses
Getting a new laptop would allow me to get so much for more work done b/c I wouldn’t have to wait until my computer unlocks to be able to work away. Thanks for the chance.
I read the official rules for alternate form of entry and completed the form.
A faster processor would allow my applications to open faster & then I could get more done in a shorter time period:).

Right now, my husband and I are sharing a laptop. I would love to have one of my own!
I do not have a laptop, and I’ve been wanting one for a long time. I have an old desktop, and it is not at all fast. It takes me much longer to do all the things that I want on the computer, and I’m stuck sitting in an uncomfortable chair, at a desk that is not even the proper height for keyboard use. To have a fast laptop, would be unbelievably wonderful.
