Hello,
I will start studying again (ICT stuff) in a month after a long break and my school told me I will need to buy a laptop. I haven't been following latest development in laptop hardware so I am totally clueless.
The school didn't tell much about the minimum specs required, other than >6gb RAM, good CPU and display.
I already have a high end desktop PC that I build few years back. I am looking for a laptop that will last for 4 years till I graduate.
The info:
I have been browsing various websites for good laptop offers and so far I came across with this:
Asus F550JK-DM205H 15.6''. It does not have a SDD which I will buy and add myself, the price is currently 850e. I know the graphics card is a bit lame but it has 8GB ram and a decent CPU(?).
Every other laptop I found with similar stats cost about 1k euros.
