My daughter 15.5 yrs old wants to buy her OWN laptop. Obviously price is primary concern.
She is not going to be gaming, but may edit some video, edit/mix some music, communicate w/social media, and STREAM a lot of media. I understand that router is a key to adequate streaming wireless, but I imagine processor and ram would be factors as well.
She will hopefully get 4-5 years out of this device, and perfect world 7 years through college. (She is relatively conscientious) Expansion capacity a bonus
What recommendation do YOU have for specs I should be looking for, and maybe brands to seek or avoid too.
I think in this case a used laptop may be a bad idea for longevity sake, but I'm open to the concept.
Thanks so much for your input!
