Q: I'm looking at buying a laptop, so far dell seems to have the best bargain for your buck. It would cost 1400 for a Dell 320 (260x2) gb w/ free fall, 4gb memory, 256mb video card, etc, etc. I want to know if getting the upgrade form 2.0 to 2.5. ghz is worth it. (Dell Studio 17). Why is it?/ Isn't it? I think this will help alot of people. Also throw in opinions on 200$ extra blue ray for laptop?
A: Definitely gett he upgrade to 2.5ghx if it's in your budget, the performance differance is immense. As for the Blu-Ray player, DVD & DVD-HD are still the standard for movies, and will be for at leats another 2 years. If and when the Blu-Ray disk is a standard, there will be many internal Blu-ray players that can be bought for cheap prices. even now, you cna find some for $120. So unless you have loads of Blu-Rays and want to wathc them on your computer, it's not really worth it just yet. Hoep that helps.
