Hallo Skunks<div>I am about to spend some money on a laptop, not more than 60k. It has been my understanding that Intel core 13 is better in processing than Core 2 Duo. Today a certain techie wanted to dispel this, saying that the Dell Inspiron 1545(Core 2 Duo) would be better than the Dell Inspiron N5040(Core i3 <span style="line-height:16px;text-align:left;font-size:13px;font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">2.66GHz with 3MB Cache</span>) which is currently being sold by Safaricom at 52k.</div>



<div><br></div><div>I am not much of a developer, I do simple wordpress css and php dev for my site and other sites I run. Most of the stuff I do is blogging, reading (I can have upto 30 tabs of browser open) and ofcourse simple image editing for use on the blogs. </div>
