This is your best choice but it is 14 inch .. ThinkPAD is very durable and good.

Lenovo ThinkPad is good, you can also try HP Pavilion g6, HP Pavilion g6 comes in multiple color options and your choice of a Core i3 CPU (the Pavilion g6t, for more processing punch) or AMD APU (the Pavilion g6z, for more graphics muscle)

I cant seem to pick you as best answer, well for the sake of saying it I liked your answer best. And as far as getting it, just got off from chatting with a representative and they told me no. Going to see if talking to them in via phone will change things (doudt it though). Ill post something if I'm able to get it without the OS so if someone is looking for a Lenovo laptop without an os they will know if its possible.
