Question by At yur service: okay so…ipad 2 32gb+3g or laptop with 1gb ati radeon graphics+i3 processor?
Okay, so…I’m still in school (9th grade) and I have a laptop and desktop…but I fear that the laptop will break because its more of a family laptop and my sister is careless when it comes to taking care of her things..and my moms friend installed a linux O.S that isn’t compatible with nearly anything..so I know that, unless I switch the O.S back to windows, it won’t install iTunes which the iPad needs. That being said…I used to HATE the iPad with a passion because of the fact that it was basically a blown up ipod touch (I have the 3rd generation)..and therefore, a big inconvenience. But the new one came out..and it has two cores in its processor and 9x the graphics power while STILL maintaining the 10hr battery..and not to mention it is ULTRA sleek and ULTRA sleek=ULTRA portable lol. Also, since it offers 3g connection, that means that I will get internet almost anywhere I go..and MP3 players and Phones are NOT allowed at my school, but iPad is in the category of a tablet computer, so technically speaking, I can bring it to school and use it for work..because it has Keynote..which is basically a “Microsoft Office” so to speak, for the iPad..so I can just save the attachment to my email and print out my work…Plus the iPad 2 just looks waaaayyy fun and easy to use. But then again, a laptop with the specifications of an i3 processor running at 2.5ghz, 4gb ddr3 ram, a graphics card with 1gb of ddr 3 memory, a 500gb hardrive..and a webcam of its own..i mean, thats pretty hard to beat..the thing is only 5lbs and it has a 1366 x 768 display that looks pretty amazing…plus a physical keyboard..but you can buy a physical keyboard attachment for the iPad, so that’s okay…oh, and that laptop is only 4.99 while the iPads cost a buttload..especially for the 3g model i want (9.00) and plus what p’s me off is that apple is constantly coming out with updates on their products..I mean, a new update EVERY YEAR! I’m worried because its probably gonna finally support flash, have an SD card slot, higher res. cameras etc..Please help me make this decision, thank you!
