I have set my eyes on 2 laptops from Best Buy:
Toshiba Satellite P55-A5312 $529,99
Asus Q501LA-BBI5T03
Both have basically the same specs
6gb Ram (upgradable to 8gb)
Full HD Reolution
750 GB HDD
Third Gen i5 4200U
Bluetooth
Webcam
Backlit Keyboard
HMDI
USB 3.0
Same weight, and diminsions.
Windows 8
Diffrences:
Toshiba: Has CD/DVD reader, not touch screen $200+ cheaper
ASUS: No CD/DVD Reader, Touch Sceen. Battery is also hardwired into laptop, must have professinal change if it ever goes bad.
Based on looks the ASUS wins hands down, think its a beautiful design. The Toshiba is very nice too but not as good as the ASUS. Is the touch screen worth the $200 more?? I also think that I would like to have the CD player.
