If you will using the laptop for work, you probably want something easy to carry around to plug into different things.
Try this http://www.lenovo.com/products/us/laptop/ideapad/u-series/u260/

And http://www.lenovo.com/products/us/laptop/thinkpad/thinkpad-edge/?menu-id=learn&ref-id=learn

Not sure what your local pricing is, but I like the Lenovo products, even the lower end Idea Pads. I own several ThinkPads and work on the all the time, very solid. Just bought an IdeaPad S12 for my daughter, also very nice.
