    Hello Asus people :) ,

    Fairly simple question here which of the A8 models do you consider is better overall and which is better suited for my usage style:

    uni stuff (mostly microsoft word), web browsing, youtubing, chatting, multimedia, torrents (i dont play many computer games if any).

    Oh and battery life wont be much of a concern for me, the laptop will be plugged in most of the time.

    So what do you guys think, the A8JS or the A8SC?? :)

    For your stated needs, either model will suffice. The -js is the older model with the more robust gpu, but if pricing is close go with the -sc notebook; the 8400m gpu will be more than enough.
