USA
14. Please tell us any additional information if needed.
If there are some hot deals going on above my budget, i might consider purchasing it.
Id just like a good screen, nice keyboard (backlight would be a bonus), fairly large hdd, some ssd would be fantastic, and a system good at multitasking would also prove beneficial. Maybe a larger battery life would better.
p.s. new to these laptop touch screens, are there any cons to it? short lasting fragile screens, consuming power faster, bad pixilation/screen resolution/picture?
