Hi,
"Make up to your mind foryourself what you 'need' and will use the more, if you already have a desktop that is still running smoothly why buy a laptop? I'd say buy a PS3/XBOX360 and wait a lil bit more for the new collection of laptops to come out, you'd get a better laptop for the same price  you'd buy one now"

Thanks

"Make up to (the ‘to’ is not necessary) your mind for (space required after ‘for’) yourself what you 'need' and will use the more (the underlined clause doesn’t make sense or doesn’t sound natural?), (This is a ‘comma splice’. Start a new sentence if possible.) if (possibly ‘If’ with a capital letter ‘I’.’If’ might not even be necessary) you already have a desktop that is still (The word ’still’ is redundant. Delete it.) running smoothly why buy a laptop? I'd say buy a PS3/XBOX360 and wait a lil (little?) bit more for  (Wordiness. How about just ‘until’?) the (a?) new (newer?) collection(series? model?) of laptops to come out, you'd (you then?) get a better laptop (Could use pronoun here like ‘one’?) for the same price (Lacking conjunction here?) you'd buy (pay?) for one now."
