Toshiba i7 vs. Lenovo i5?
The motherboard just went out on my old Gateway laptop and I am looking to replace it. I have narrowed it down to two laptops: Lenovo Ideapad Z580-59345254 15.6" Laptop and the Toshiba S855-S5378 15.6" Laptop. They both have the same memory and the same size hard drives the only difference is the brand name and the processor: the lenovo has an i5 and the toshiba has an i7 and the toshiba is $100 dollars more. My question is is it worth the extra $100 for the toshiba with the i7 processor?

4 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoTilling my garden too much?
So this will be my second year having a vegetable garden. Last year I had a lot of trouble with weeds and someone told me that I should have tilled the land, waited a week, tilled again, wait another week, till once more and then it would be ready to plant. He said that this would get rid of any weeds in the area, but I've read online that a lot of people say too much tilling is bad for the soil. I do have compost that I will be adding but I don't want to destroy that soil that is already there. Any advice?

I am in charge of games for a valentines day party at church this saturday and i need more ideas. The newlywed game is always a favorite, but it seems to be the same couples that play every year (we are a small church) and they come prepared for the regular questions, so we need some new ones. Any suggestions? (keep in mind it is for a church group so nothing inappropriate) ~Thanks

3 AnswersBooks & Authors1 decade agoCar won't turn over, what's wrong?
So my car wouldn't start when I went to go to work yesterday so I went ahead and drove my mom's car. When I got home I tried it again but it still wouldn't start, it sounds like it's trying to, but it won't turn over. My battery is only a couple months old but we tried jumping it off anyway and that didn't work. Then my dad stepped on the gas a couple times then tried to start it and he gave it gas as it was trying to start. It worked that time and he drove it around for a little while. I drove it all day to day and it started every time but it sounds like it almost won't. I don't know weather to trust it now or not. Any ideas what was wrong?

Ok so i recently bought a wii used and the game it came with didn't work so i went to walmart and bought prince of persia the forgotten sands. I didn't really know anything about the game but i liked the movie so i thought i'd get it to make sure the wii was working right.
