I came across this spec for a Dell laptop and with no technical knowledge wondered what more informed people here thought about it?
My use would be mainly internet browsing, word and EXCEL, Photoshop, storing photos and videos, Genealogy, watching DVDs, e-mails, etc. I'm no gamer!
I'm also not sure about the solid state hard drive! Is it better or worse than normal hard drives?
Thanks for looking
