Question from Neil1224: Asked on 26/05/2010 What about using it for photography,photoshop etc NOT video

Answer from simon: Answered on 26/05/2010
It will run Photoshop

Question from YanS: Asked on 27/08/2008 Hi, can u clarify whether the AMD Athlon 64 TK-55 processor on this laptop performs better than the Intel Celeron class of processors, or are amd athlon and intel celeron processors of equivalent standard? Also, it says free delivery for this laptop, till when does this offer hold? Does it require an additional accessory to be purchased? Finally, instead of 2 x 512 mb ram, can 1 x 1Gb ram module be shipped with this model instead? Thanx

Answer from Easycom: Answered on 28/08/2008
First, the AMD processor is a dual core whereas the celeron chip is a single core so AMD wins on that basis. Second, the free delivery is subject to you buying an accessory with the laptop and third, the ram is already fitted by the time we receive it but please call our sales team for prices on upgrading the ram. Hope this helps.

Question from tw: Asked on 12/08/2008 will this game be able to play crysis (pc game)

Answer from Easycom: Answered on 12/08/2008
Hmmm, I would suggest calling our sales team for more information on laptops with higher spec graphics cards. It may play but it is one of the most graphically intensive games on the market and that graphics card is not the latest so doesn't support Direct X 10.

Question from CMJ: Asked on 20/07/2008 I am looking for a desktop replacement to primarily run my family tree software. The requirements of the software are:
300MHz CPU Pentium, XP Home Edition, 64MB of RAM, 150MB free hard drive space prior to installation, 2 x CD-ROM drive or faster and it must be part of the system and no accessed via a network, 640 x 480 display, 256 colours or higher, video capture and sound board and a CD-R or CD-RW for backing up files, printer port, parallel port and 1-2 USB ports. Would this laptop be suitable to run this software or could you recommend one please.

Answer from Easycom: Answered on 22/07/2008
Those system requirements are very old, this laptop is many times more powerful than the requirements, however it would be wise to check with the makers of the software that it supports windows vista. Even if it doesnt officially, the chances are it will run fine on it anyway.

Question from starseeker-enterprise: Asked on 19/07/2008 I'm looking to not only use a laptop for playing music on, but for creating DVDs for slideshows and film editing (not High Def at this time). Would this laptop be okay or which one would.

Answer from Easycom: Answered on 21/07/2008
For video editing you will benefit a lot from a large HDD, a powerful dual-core processor, a lot of memory and a capable graphics card. I recommend a 7720G as it meets all of this criteria - LX.ALN0X.488
