I'm looking for a laptop/ultrabook. I intend to use it for web browsing, movies, music, facebook, skype and such. No gaming at all. I already built a desktop, so i know a bit about hardware, im just looking for ideas because im having trouble finding good options.
So im looking for something light, not too big, maybe 15in. screen or smaller. I'd like 1080p, but color reproduction is more important than resolution. As i already said i dont plan on gaming, so no dedicated gpu. A dual core cpu would be fine, im not biased amd or intel. (amd has better integrated gpu, intel better cpu performance blah blah). 4gb ram is probably fine. Lastly, i want an ssd. Whether it comes with one or not, its gonna need one. I can use drive cloning software on my desktop to transfer the os. And ssd's are cheap for 128gb or so, which is all i really need. So does a laptop like this exist? i know the hardware im thinking of isnt all that expensive as far as desktops go, and i know laptops are always a bit of an upcharge. So if you can think of something that looks good, let me know. Thanks!!

How about this? MSI PE60? PX60? I don't really know the budget you want? So there are two decent price laptops you can consider...
For the basic daily work, they are all pretty enough. Besides, the appearance doesn't have strong gaming elements, but it has perfect performance.
PE60=15.6" panel with the latest Core i7 and 960M.
Might be a good choice ~

NO NO NO Nikita, thats overpriced for someone not gaming.

Just get a cheap acer laptop it will serve well, I would also recommend a Thinkpad.

Get the upgraded screen and you should be good on the thinkpad, also get the biggest battery. Will last a good 12 hours plus on 50% brightness.
