programing

Hi I am a 1st year computer science student. I want to buy a laptop. I found those two Dell laptops Dell latitude e7450 I5 5300u 5500hd graphics 8gb ram 500gb HDD 14 inch 1080p antiglare display. 1.6kg. And the second is: Dell inspirion 3543 I5 5200u Nvidia 820m + 5500hd graphics 8gb RAM...

How do I start a program. I tried in the notepad. @echo off Start ooVoo.exe Start ooVoo.Ink Start "C:\Program Files (x86)\ooVoo\ooVoo.exe" Start "C:\Program Files (x86)\ooVoo\" None work. Help Pleas, what are you supposed to put after the start t launch ooVoo.

i am looking for programming in java and c++ something that is not to expensive but will run these programs with ease(probably should be able to play minecraft to ;)
