It's my birthday this week so naturally I'm searching for a laptop for my wife. I'm looking for the daily driver of laptops. Mostly for Web browsing and mid day Netflixing, but also some light gaming. I built her a gaming rig last year so the laptop would be just be for some late night or lazy Sunday bed time ESO. No preferences in manufacturer of laptop or components but trying to find a good balance of quality/reliability and a sleek look. Maybe back lit keyboard and at least a 15" screen.
