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.

WWWOOOWWWEEE!!Yes I am that excited about the Intel® Core™ i5 processor!!!! The Intel® Turbo Boost Technology feature seems great to me. That means I would be able to go from simple tasks like producing documents in word to watching my favorite shows on the computer and probably not even notice speed was increased to handle the job! Whoo hoo!! I would buy a laptop because we definately need a new one 🙂
a blu-ray player and some movies
I would buy a Wii. I want one soooo bad. I would love to have the Wii Fit to work out with.
First thing would be the tools necessary to get video streaming to our TV!

Since our TV just died, I would put the gift card towards a new one.
