I bought it to use for Microsoft Office / website work and surfing.  LR4 has been taxing the processor something awful.With plans to upgrade being postponed for one reason or another, I bought the full version of LR5 to upgrade earlier this week, used the B&H coupon for $69.  Went home and during the upgrade, my computer told me LR5 required Win7 or above.... I'm running Vista....Hit Fatwallet.com yesterday, picked up a <a href="http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/latitude-e6510/pd" target="_blank">Dell Latitude E6510</a> refurbished laptop, 8GB RAM, 250GB Hard Drive, i5 processor & Win7 Pro for $435 w/tax & shipping to my door (Fatwallet had a 25% coupon code). Can't wait for the new arrival!This will be mine and the Vostro will continue to sit on the desk for family use.Plans are LR5 and the Google/NIK Collection as I move forward with my new found skills <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />New <a href="http://nikonites.com/computers-software/20371-3tb-external-seagate-drive-%2494.html#axzz2u6M8zA2o" target="_blank">Seagate 3TB external drive</a> will house my LR catalogs, on site backups to a second 2TB drive and using <a href="http://nikonites.com/computers-software/19898-anyone-using-backblaze-online-cloud-storage.html#axzz2u6M8zA2o" target="_blank">BackBlaze </a>for cloud backup. Seems like a pretty good plan.... Now to wait on the porch for the new toy to arrive <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
