Notebook for IT student

[D24IT5]

I want to buy a new notebook for college and could need some help/advice.

It will be used for programming, software eng., ....

I came across this one:
https/www.alternate.co.uk/Hewlett-Packard/Pavilion-15-aw004ng-(W8Y60EA)-Notebook-/html/product/1277688?event=search

It looks pretty solid to me, but is there a better option?

Here's what to get if you want an SSD for faster boot times: https/www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-17-3-Inch-Laptop-6700HQ-Windows/dp/B015Y69CL2/ref=sr_1_2?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1473223771&sr=1-2
Here's what I recommend as it is the best value:
