For many technical geeks, decrease of processor to a core i3-2120 dual core processor from core i5 series and memory to 4GB of DDR3 memory from 6GB signifies that they would find it difficult to carry forward demanding tasks such as video editing, etc. In the same way, comparatively present configuration has minimum slots (two) which restrains the capacity of memory upgrades.
