Well here it is! Isn't it beautiful? Besides the fact that it's all blue and sparkly, it works like a dream!




It has a special chip inside of it you see. The Intel® Core™ i5 processor. Which gives the laptop
smart performance with a speed boost. I gotta tell ya, I love speedy gadgets! A super speedy processor, means a super speedy laptop, which means I can get more work done faster! Yay!





In this photo, I'm using the laptop at my son's college library, waiting for him while he's in class. It's a 3 hour class, but I'm taking classes online while I wait, so now the time goes by quickly, and I'm actually getting something done! In fact I'm taking a class in Illustrator, which ironically is the same class that he's taking. The teaching videos run perfectly, with no lagging at all, thanks to this processor!




Look I made an blue oval! Woohoo!! Okay I'm not a pro at this software yet, but I'm sure I'll get better as I take more classes.

Do you know what the best part about this laptop/processor is?



It came with this tiny little box. The combination of this box, and the Intel® Wireless Display (aka WiDi).1, which came as part of the laptop, enables you to wirelessly project laptop content on your TV! Awesome!!!

Basically whatever you see on your laptop screen, you'll see on your TV. I set it all up myself and it was super quick and easy!




So now I can order stuff for my shop online and see the stuff, nice and big, so I know what I'm actually getting.




And since I can order the stuff faster, I can get the stuff faster, and haul it down to the shop sooner, and sell it quicker. Nice!

But also, you can gather the whole family around the TV....

Or... just those folks that are interested, and enjoy some fun time looking at your favorite family photos.




Even better, you can watch your favorite shows, via your laptop and project them on the tv! Which means you can watch the shows you like, whenever you want to watch them. In fact you can sit down and watch a whole season of your favorite show on say... a rainy Sunday perhaps.

It looks like we won't be needing that second wife around here after all. In fact I just might spend even more time with my husband, while we catch up on some episodes of The Office!

Now, get this! There's something in it for you guys as well! I've been offered a $250 Visa gift card, via Blogher, to give away on my blog! Woohoo! That could put a dent in some Christmas shopping! If you leave a comment on the end of this post, you will be entered for a chance to win!!!
