Hey All,
I'm looking at getting an HP Touchsmart tm2t Tablet to replace my old Alienware laptop - it runs like a champ but lugging it to classes all day and 2hrs of battery sucks.
■It looks like I can get the Core i3 330UM with Intel HD Graphics for base price
■$50 USD more gets me the i3 330UM with an ATI HD 5450 Switchable Graphics card
■$75 more than base gets me an i5 430UM with Intel HD graphics
■And $125 more than base gets me an i5 430UM with the HD 5450 switchable graphics
Ordinarily I'd just eat the $125 and get the nicer processor and better graphics, but it wont build till Oct 11th and get here 2-5 days after. If I get the Base model I think I can get it by Friday.
I'd be using the Tablet for mostly note taking, some video watching, reading, and maybe some WoW or other light gaming or photoshop. Will I notice a difference? Is it worth the price and extra time?
