What fun it has been playing with my new Intel® Core™ i5 processor. It really takes multi-tasking to a new level. I started using my new laptop to just update Picky Palate, then I started using the computer to store all of my photos and recipes. It really is easy to pop back and forth to each window and put multi-tasking to good work! Each time I use my processor I find more reasons I love it.
My husband set up the Intel® wireless display (aka WiDi) so I could use my TV as a monitor and talk about cool! I still get a kick out of seeing my website up on my television screen. It’s quite impressive and comfortable to be able to sit on the couch and get my work done with my TV screen as the monitor.
Here is some information about the Intel Core i5 Processor.
- The Intel Processor is a smart processor that delivers extra performance whenever you need it, and it increases energy efficiency when you don’t.

I would get a little laptop 🙂

I’d use it as part of the payment for a new laptop.
I would buy an iPad…I have been saving up for one! Thanks for this giveaway. 🙂
I would get my son anew Xbox. His broke and he really misses it.
Being able to work on more than one task at a time would be a big help in managing email and Best Buy has the newest tech equipment, so this is a great prize. Great graphics and speed mean this Intel i5 processor won’t get bogged down loading rich content. Maybe I’ll get better at the games, too.
I would love to get another lens for my camera! I hope I win!
