    If you tend to use your laptop often near an outlet, the general thought is to remove the battery while the laptop runs on AC power.

    Personally, if the battery is full charged and you are not using it, I would prefer to unplug the laptop. BUT note that if you leave the laptop for days unplugged, the battery will slowly discharge because the laptop is still using some power from the battery. So if you are not using your laptop for a long time, best to disconnect the battery as well.

    You'll need to be specific on the final laptop you will choose because certain models of the Lenovo Z-series have Intel-3000 GPU while others have much faster GPUs. As for the Asus K-series seems to be equipped with all fast GPUs (ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4860) which is great for current games.

    Example of ASUS... Asus K43SA-VX085R, Intel Core i5-2430M CPU, 2GB DDR3, 750GB HDD, AMD Radeon HD6730 2GB VRAM w/ Win7 O.S. | VillMan Computers
    meron budget to upgrade memory for a total of 4gb

    Example of LENOVO ... Lenovo ideapad Y460p (5906-3677) Smarter and Faster with 2nd Gen Core i7! | VillMan Computers
    but it exceeds your budget slightly... but you get an Intel i7

    My current laptop is an Acer Aspire S3 because my priority was portability (including weight).

    The Apple MacBook Pro 13" sells for around 58K and the Sony S series 13" sells for 54K. Both have almost the same specs. But which would you prefer?

    I bought an IBM X60 Thinkpad 6 years ago and is still working great. Ibinigay ko sa pamangkin, nahulog, basag ang corner edge, gumagana pa rin.

    I bought a Fujitsu L Series 3 years ago and now it's dead. I haven't check why.

    I bought an Asus (forgot the model) for my wife two years ago, an Asus software installed in it made some 3rd party software incompatible. I removed it. Still working though.

    I got a new Dell Inspiron (N4050) about a year ago. Still working great and never let me down, so far.


    I think, any cheaper model would be fine kung hindi naman gagamitin pang games, CAD, or other design softwares.
