Asus 15.6″ Dual-Core Laptop

Saturday, November 24, 2012

If you have someone special in your life whom you love about 90% of the way, this Asus laptop is the perfect gift to show how much you almost think the world of them.

The laptop’s dual-core processor says “I love you” while still suggesting that there is still a little something missing. Maybe, someday, yours will be a quad-core kind of love. Maybe.

Four gigs of RAM is plenty of multitasking power, but it’s hard to ignore that this Asus can be expanded to eight gigs. So while life will be great under current romantic and computer-memory conditions, you’ll still be able to wonder, “What if?”

Listen, this is a great computer, especially for the money, and it would be hard to point to anything in particular that doesn’t work. It’s pretty clearly not the BEST computer out there, just as the current object of your affection clearly isn’t the BEST PERSON for you.

But they’re really good for you. Well, pretty good for you. They’re totally good enough, for now, until something better comes along. And with this Asus, at least you won’t have blown a bunch of money on a gift for a well-meaning ex.
