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.

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

A Intel Core processor laptop would help my day to day life because my computer has records of everything and it helps to have a laptop to carry everything in one place.
April says
My morning tasks are never done because my computer takes forever to do anything and opening more than one thing at a time just makes it worse. An Intel processor would make my morning tasks go so much quicker I could get way more done and have more time just to browse and read blogs…;-)

Getting a new Intel Core processor laptop would enable to pay my bills online and communicate with family and friends online [out of the state] saving me time and money.
Shawna OBrien says
An Intel Core processor laptop would be so awesome. My current laptop is very slow and just does not have the power and speed and capacity to do all that I do on the computer. If I win, I’d use the GC towards getting a new laptop.

It would definitely speed me through my e-mails and news reading. My current computer does not take advantage of the fast wi-fi connection that I have.
simone says
The i5 processor will really help handle all the multiple programs I have open all the time without slowdown. This would mean more time to spend with my family. Thanks! thebubbledies(at)gmail(dot)com
Shannon says

catherine copeland says
first of all I am a teacher and I definitely need to upgrade my computer. I could also use something faster to download all of my pictures and music
Let’s face it. I just need a computer.
