Hello,

I have been hoping to get a laptop for school and general usage. I am not a gamer, maybe a little sims but that is about it. I found this laptop a Asus K55a and to me it look great. http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/product/asus-asus-k55a-15-6-laptop-brown-intel-core-i7-3630qm-750gb-hdd-6gb-ram-windows-8-english-k55a-dh71-ca/10233094.aspx?path=cc2e72a0c364829b9024485f875dac8den02&SearchPageIndex=1

I am unfortunately not very computer smart so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I was also wondering if the extended warranty is actually worth it. The manufacturer gives 2 years on parts and labour. The product service plan is 249.99 for three years. Please help!

That is a very good laptop it's actually a bit overpowered for normal use but if you want a really snappy laptop I would really reccomend buying this laptop.
