I don't want a touchscreen really:/. Those are usually the pricy ones anyways. Just
Kinda a decent thing that'll make me through.

Go on eBay and look up a Thinkpad T400/T410 with an unlocked BIOS. (If you do purchase one with a locked BIOS you'll have to soder and apply a new chip to it.)

I'd also recommend picking up a 9-cell lithium battery that fits the T400/T410. They're nice computers but a little bit clunky. If you don't want a clunky laptop, look for the X-series. Once you found one reply or just leave the page on my profile.

These are business laptops and actually preform well for what they have in them.
 
A Surface RT comes with the full Microsoft Office so it would be totally right for you. But it's a little pricey :/
 
If it's in the range in my first post its fine. That price is all good if its in between that.

It wouldn't kill you to do some research of your own(It is YOUR laptop), yah know. A regular Surface is just $349.00, so yes it's within your grandparent's spending range.

Yes I did check. So blah...
And I wasn't asking them BTW. I was stating that
If the pricing was good and stuff,good reviews then I'd look
To it.

Anyways yeah.

Bellbringer- I checked that seems like a really suiting laptop.
I'll look into that one maybe ^~^. It seems like it might do me good for
My school stuff. My teachers assign typing papers all the time so
That's the main reason I'm getting a laptop. Also my math teacher
Assigns percentages graphs all the time so go excel! And PowerPoint for book
Reports. My language teacher likes our stuff to have pizzaz so she
Has us do powerpoints. So as I was saying it seems to be a good suit.
I've been looking around the internet looking into others and just making my
List. And eventually I circle down to one.

Anyways the main reason I'm getting one is because I'm getting behind in
School so need to get one so I don't go to the library every week.

I'd go with either an ASUS or an ASER (I never liked them, but my brother has one and he runs EVERYTHING on it. & it works perfectly fine). Dell suckz~
 
Do not get a Sony Vaio. They suck: My internet connection is crud because of my computer. It is awfully slow and is practically a piece of junk: My mouse stopped working on my login so I have to use my Dad's login account for my laptop.

I haven't even really seen that places so probably won't.

Yeah, Dell was my first laptop. Worst. Thing. Ever. I couldn't run games on it or anything! Super slow.....ugh.

Also take into consideration what you plan on doing with your laptop, if you want games/movies/school. It's better to spend a little more money on a good quality laptop vs. buying a crappy laptop for 200 bucks.
 
I also think that Dell is not a good idea. It has made me angry many times. As for me, Asus Q200E is the best choice.

Hmm. I have a list I've been working on trying to bring it down to one.
I have 3 on the list.
*HP Snow White Polaroid
*Surface RT
*Samsung (forgot the rest).

The Samsung is probably gonna get kicked off.
So it'll just be a battle between the HP and the RT.
The RT has a high chance of being my pick unless I
Run into some better laptops to put to that list. But those
2 are the same price,same stars. But the RT just looks better
And more like something to use.

Do a poll.
 
Surface is more of a tablet, but i have it and it works great. You should buy it with the keyboard (the keyboard has a magnet that attaches to the tablet so it's like a mix match) so you can type easily.
I think the keyboard with actual keys is better but my dad got the one with soft sensitive touch keys,

Not to mention their customer service... Oh my.

I love my Lenovo IdeaPad. It's touchscreen, which I like. The graphics are great, and it has enough RAM for me.
It is a bit hefty because it has a disk drive, but I need that for the projects I'm working on.
It cost 800 bucks, I think.
 
i'd say a macbook pro but they're too expensive (i got mine as an off to college gift) and you're not really into them so..

i recommend a toshiba, i had one since i was in middle school and it lasted be all the way up until the end of high school.
 
Well, gee, don't keep us in suspense! What happened!?

Lol

I got the HP since Staples weren't going to get any RTs
In for a while since they are on back order. They were supposed to be in
On the week after Christmas but the will be there next week .-. Walmart
Didn't sell the Surface RT and had the HP for a beautiful price so
I got that^^.

Thanks for everyone's help to help me decide^^
