I'll be purchasing a new laptop to run windows on, and I wanted to dual-boot hackintosh it as well. So Probook 4540s seemed obvious. Are there any drawbacks to the core i7 3632qm processor vs the core i5 3230m processor besides price? Any clue if the mobo is different between the two processor models? I couldn't find anything online.
Also, I actually saw these in a store and checked the device manager- the wifi card is a Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 b/g/n wifi card. Is this a slightly different build of the laptop that might not require wifi card replacement?
