Alienware M17x R2 Laptop Advice
« on: October 28, 2014, 01:33:48 PM »
So some guy is selling his for just 14k php...Im still asking for some  discount though...

any thoughts on this? He bought it late 2010 pa..but I like the specs..

could it handle Indesign, CAD and 3d rendering programs easy as pie??  It will be mostly used for watching movies, surfing, and the occassional take home work or sideline (Architecture).. games, not really...as Im not a gamer...

I like the big screen..and loaded specs.. my  toddler just recently broke my old laptops screen so looking for a good powerful affordable, practical replacement..

HELP GUYS IS THIS A GOOD DEAL?! and is it easy to transport here and there? weight and size..

Pwede na yan. But if you can upgrade the RAM to 16GB, mas ok. I just dunno if upgradeable yung RAM nyan. Another thing is the battery life.

had a really good feeling sana...pero ok lang...I think di ko rin naman pwedeng dalhin ito easily at super laki niya...and might be a huge inconvenience..

anyway... it wasnt meant for me..
