I ROCK like a fossil
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey whats up NGU?! BlazeAlot here, i just purchased a brand new laptop and i want to get the opinion from some people here at NGU with a bit more "computer knowledge than me".... I don't know much about laptops/notebooks but the sales rep at the store seemed to like it and recommend it as a buy. Although i seem to think sales reps are scammers and just tell you what you want to hear?? :whistle:


Anyways below is some info i found on he notebook i got, and some pictures i found also. Please give me some feedback and let me know if this was a good choice, or if i was just talked into a random machine? Eek

ANYONE who can let me know if this was a good choice or now its much appreciated, and i will return the favor with a thanks, and +REP! :420:
