|  Help me decide on New Laptop
Need a new laptop for surfing, and light gaming
Staples has this one for sale, please help me decide if this is a good buy.
And what would you guys recommend around the same price range.
Thanks http://www.staples.ca/ENG/Catalog/ca...affixedcode=WW |

Decent price. Processor is fine, and it does have dedicated graphics from the looks of it. From a little bit of research, the NVIDIA N10M Series is a NVIDIA G210M. If you're looking to lug it around though, note that's it 6.5lbs, so it's not too portable.

Would you guys consider the accidental warranty from staples??
For $250, your covered for 3yrs.
The sales guy was telling me, I could "accidentally drop" my laptop on the last day before my warranty expires, bring the broken laptop back and they could either replace it for you or give you a full refund.
This isn't the same as the FS, or BB psp warranty.

I doubt that can be fully true or everyone would just trash the thing with 1 day left and then get a new computer.
But $250 + interest in 3 years will get you a much better computer, unless you're extremely accident prone you shouldn't need it.

I'm gonna go and see if there's any "fine prints" around this warranty.
And see if I can reconfirm it with a store manager.
