I’m currently on the lookout for a good laptop for my wife. I’m planning to buy her a new one as a Mother’s Day gift even if I might get it at the end of the month.
Right now, I’m torn between the ultraportability of an ASUS EEE or the decent computing power of an ACER laptop. As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve fallen in love with the EEE’s small form factor. I know my wife will love the fact that she can bring it with her in her various meetings and during her brainstorming sessions with her staff. But I am also considering getting her an ACER with a decent graphics chip. I am proud to say that my wife is also a gamer and she has been complaining that she hasn’t had the time to play her favorite RPGs and simulations. A budget gaming PC will be something she will definitely appreciate.
There are just so many choices right now. I think I’ll need a couple more weeks before I arrive at a decision.
