Just wondered what anyone had? Matt Hi there Matt, I'd be happy to build you a laptop to specification as this looks right up the street of the VeryPC Thinbook. Please email me if you're interested, with an expanded wish list (as we configure to order). My email is in the sig below. I'd recommend the i3-4110M 4th generation CPU as the best dual core option available for the money as there are global shortages of the main stream i5-4210M processor. My quad core chip of choice is the i7-4712MQ along with our Bay-trail M Quadcore. The Thinbook range is now shipping with TPM on the motherboard which is ace. Looking forward to hearing from you. Ta, Col
Millgate Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 For that spec, I'd 100% go with the @VeryPC Thinbook @VeryPC_Colin_M recommended. Awesome machines! 1

Kingnerd Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 Looking at the specs you wrote, 8gbram and so on I thought...
Wubbalubbadub Posted October 29, 2014 Author Posted October 29, 2014 Looking at the specs you wrote, 8gbram and so on I thought... 8GB of ram makes it a gaming machine? What did you expect.. intel atoms with 2GB?
