For the past couple of years, I've stayed away from AMD due to problems I've had with their products, but I keep hearing about them recently involving their Fusion APUs. Right now, I'm in the market for a cheap laptop for my school work, but also for some light-to-moderate gaming (not expecting high-quality visuals) as well as web browsing and streaming like Youtube. I wasn't looking for an extremely powerful laptop (as I don't have that kind of money), so at first I was thinking of going with a cheap Intel-based laptop with their HD Graphics IGP, but supposedly AMD's Fusion beats Intel's IGP graphically (though not in processing). Because of my prior experiences with them before, I'm hesitant to take them up again, but many reviewers are giving props to them for these APUs. I was reading up on a few like the HP dm1z, but like I said, I'm rather hesitant.
I'd just like to know what you all think about their fusion-based products, and whether a laptop utilizing them would be something to look into.
