Im in the process of buying a new laptop for school and for gaming at home and Im wondering, does weight really matter all that much? My current laptop is a 17" 7 pound HP. With the power supply its probably more like 8 pounds. I take it to work quite often and the weight doesn't bother me...it really makes me wonder why there is a big sacrifice on performance so that people can have ultra light laptops?
Im looking at buying a new laptop and its 8.6 pounds...with the power supply probably closer to 10...am I gonna regret it when I have to haul it to class everyday? I could get something a few pounds lighter, but then it costs a ton more and is the cooling really that good? It seems to me that if you want something that is going to have high performance and good cooling then that is just a sacrifice you have to make...
Maybe I just dont notice it because Im a big guy...seems like nothing after throwing around my 70 pound kids... Maybe its because I dont take public transit or walk anywhere with it...I have to drive everywhere. I dont know, what do you guys think?
