I am doing A Level computing and OCR Nationals Level 3 ICT which both involve creating videos, word processing, spreadsheets, viewing videos, and lots more! I need a laptop which will work fast and not cause me any problems when I am using lots of programs at the same time. Below is the spec of the laptop, i have upgraded the processor which costs an extra £110 compared to the Intel® Pentium® Dual-Core Processor T4300 (2.1GHz, 800MHz, 1MB cache) so do you think it is worth me doing this??
