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

I would use it for working on my digital photography. God Bless!
I have a daughter headed to college in the next year and this would be great to send with her.
Would love to win the laptop. Our computer we have now is one our son-in-law put together from computers others have thrown away.
I had to read this a couple of times because I couldn’t believe it. The gift card, a laptop? That is amazing. If I were lucky enough to win, it would be shared with our son who needs a computer to help with school work. Thanks for the chance.
My computer has done well, but it definitely slows down when I have too many things going on! My dh gets annoyed by the way I open so many programs at once, but it’s the way I do things. It would really help me hop on for just a minute, get stuff done, and then get on with my day, to have a faster computer.
I would love to win this but my son going off to college needs it worse!
Thanks for the giveaway Rhoda.
It would help me get twice as much done just with its extra speed alone! That would help so much.

Hi Rhoda would LOVE to win! thanks for the opportunity!
Winning would be great!
I would love to win this. Thank you for the opportunity!
It would help my life bunches in that it’s fast and efficient (as opposed to this old hog I’m working on now)…and it’s a laptop.
I’ve never had a laptop. Always a desktop. Yikes!
Thank you.
well, it would make me alot more mobile since I only have a desk top computer.

Thank you!
I would love to get a new computer! Mine is so old. I bought it in 2005. That’s like ancient in computer years. 🙂
The biggest help this would provide would be to help me manage LOTS of open windows, uploads/downloads with much better and faster performance!
i work remotely while my son is at preschool. i could definitely use a laptop that could handle my photo-editing needs.

Sweet give away!
We have one computer and try to be kind to each other and give equal time to those who need it. It seems the both of us and our children and grandchildren want to work (or play) at the same time, I would love to have one of my own.
