    My new toy, no Hal, it's not what you're thinking!

    I've been after a new laptop for a while so I decided to stop thinking about it and go and get one... It's a HP Pavilion and it works, that's all I need to know but for the geeks who require the ins and outs it has 8g ram 1 terabyte of memory and some kind of quad something or other to make it go, who cares, I just liked it because it's purple.

    The 8 gigs of RAM is your memory. RAM means "Random Access Memory". The terabyte is your hard drive space. And the "quad something or other to make it go" is a quad core microprocessor.

    Personally, I don't like HPs, but if it works for you, then more power to you.

    Oh nice.

    8GB of RAM and a quad core processor... must have been quite expensive :richgirl:

    If you need any help just ask. I promise not to install software to spy on your webcam... but Hal may have his own plans

    I,ve had HP's before and they've always been ok so I thought I'd stick with what I know.

    To be honest it was pretty cheap, £400 plus a software package (office, antivirus, cloud store) for an additional £150

    If it works for you, then it works for you, hun. I'm not putting you down.

    like the guys mention 8 gigs of ram is plenty (overall speed),
    a quadcore processor is fast (4 things that sort all of your unreasonable demands when you make them at the same time)
    and a one terabyte hard drive is more than large enough (to save all of your pictures and videos of hal in various states of undress)


    I'm sure you'll like it Minz, plenty of power and space to save things
