I'm thinking the same thing, as browsing doesn't require much processing power anyway.

probably will work fine as a browser, and if you want the better battery life, upgrade the battery.

I like Dell for them offering 0% interest on financing a certain laptops. I like Mac Book Pro for its sleekness and the ability to run both Windows and Apple OS.

I was trying to look for dell or newegg to see if they have no interest for 6 months type of deal.

Mac is cool but over price in my opnion.
