I haven't used a laptop in years but now need one to work from home. Most of the programs I need to use are web based, but will be opening up about 5 applications at once - and quickly going back and forth between them all. I would like something that will "feel" (keyboard, use, etc) like my desktop as much as possible to reduce the learning curve. I have aging eyes so am not interested in a small screen. Basic minimum requirements are: PC, under $300, windows 7 or above, 4 gb memory, intel, external mouse, etc. Pretty basic. Will NOT be gaming, might occasionally need webcam (although not a must-have as my desktop has capabilities), and somewhat portable. Would REALLY appreciate any and all suggestions! Thanks! :)
