I am helping my dad get a new laptop for himself. We were very busy chatting last night about possible options that he can consider. He is leaning towards a DELL but of course, I am talking him out of it. I have never been a DELL fan. I have worked with the company for 3 years and I know what kind of desktops and notebooks they sell.

I need to email him my recommendation by midnight or else, daddy will surely get the Dell notebook that he wants. Sayang lang my effort. Hehe!
