I went to get this changed in mine to a Core Duo but it cannot ...

I've recently purchased this laptop after my previous one broke and i'm very pleased with it. As a student, i needed a laptop that was simple to use to get my work done and this was it.

I can find no fault with it. I also play games on this ... Read review
