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.

Welcome to my online kitchen! Picky Palate is where you’ll find family friendly recipes along with the best Disney eats, tips and copycat recipes! 
I’d buy a digital camera for my daughter.
If I won a Gift Card at Best Buy I would spend it sadly on a new dishwasher. Ours is in desparate need of repair. If I didn’t need a new dishwasher I’d get a new laptop.
I would buy a remote car starter for my wonderful boyfriend. He would never purchase this for himself, so I’d love to be able to do it for him.

An ipod to keep us motivated during work outs!
I would buy the X-box kinect!

I would buy a bunch of DVDs for my family to watch on those raining or cold days when we just want to snuggle!
The first thing I would buy with my Best Buy gift card would be a new cd player for my car!
This would make a great dent in the iPad I’ve been lusting after!
With a best buy gift card I would get either a Flip video, RAM for my computer, or an iPod which would be used as a gift.
I’d probably use it towards a laptop for my Stepdaughter. She has been consistently begging for one for a year now (as opposed to it being a whim!). It’s time….
I would put it towards a new computer. Ours is 5 years old. A dinosaur!

The first thing I would buy would be a new camera for my amazing mom! She loves to take pictures of all she’s been up to since I’ve left for college, but her camera is falling apart!!
Well, I’d probably go with a new computer. The review of your new computer with the new Intel processor sounds like there are some really great new features that i would love.

I would apply it to a new laptop our old one went out and I like to have the kids at the kitchen table with it so we can see what they are doing instead of using are main computer.
Have a great Thanksgiving 🙂
I would put this towards a flat screen for our newly finished basement that my hubby has been working himself to death on for the past 2 years. This would be my thank you present to him!
New cell phones…just about everyone of us needs one.
