Bold underlined emphasis mine. That's always the first mistake to begin with. Never ceases to amaze me that people do this, and 99% of the time they have nothing approaching a "real" need for a laptop to begin with. One pays so much more and gets so much less, which on top of that becomes obsolete that much quicker, and it's not upgradeable at all really.
