Hello, I'm going to be coming into some money at the start of next month so I am now looking into getting a netbook or laptop for school. The details concerning this purchase are below:
■My budget is no more than $350.
■I want it to be as portable as possible while still being able to complete the tasks I will be using it for.
■Screen resolution isn't much of a concern.
■I would prefer as much battery life as possible.
■This computer will be for school work (word documents, powerpoints, etc) and web browsing only. No gaming or any really resource intensive programs.
■Storage isn't a big issue as I will only be storing school work a maybe a little bit of music.
■My preferred sites are Newegg, Amazon, and Tiger Direct.
■I plan to keep and use this laptop/netbook for schoolwork only until I am done with school all together (about 3 more years at least).
■I would prefer a BluRay for the optical so if I have down time I can watch some of my BluRay movies but it's not a huge concern. Price, portability, and battery life come first.
■I am a fan of all Asus products so I would have no problems buying from them. I have bought many products from them in the past with no complaints. I'm not really partial to any brand so just give suggestions and tell the strengths and weaknesses of each computer and your experience with the brand in terms of reliability and customer service.
■I am in the US so prices will be in US dollars and there will be no over seas shipping.
I'm looking forward to hearing back from you guys. Please give me suggestions and explain why you suggest it. And please no bias towards brands unless you can give a legitimate reason why. Thanks in advance!
