12. Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons.
I am an Asus fan boy, but so far have not been able to find one that fits just right. I have also looked at Vizio and Sony as linked above

13. What country do you live in?
U.S.

14. Please tell us any additional information if needed.
I would really prefer to avoid windows 8 if possible, but not the biggest deal. I am willing to give it a chance if need be and I also understand that I could just purchase a copy of 7 later.

I will be using it for my business in real estate so I plan on being pretty mobile, but I would still like to have a decent amount of "computer" at the same time.

Asking a lot out of a portable budget computer I know but I wanted to see what you guys thought. The number of choices are overwhelming and I am simple not able to do a significant amount of research to be comfortable with my choice at the moment, as studying for my license etc. consumes most of my time.

Thank you in advance :)
