So I've built my own PC before and am pretty confident that I more or less know how to go about putting together a gaming rig. However I know nothing whatsoever about mid-range laptops to be used for work/ emails etc. which, as the title explains, I need to find out about on behalf of my mother who is barely capable of mastering a google search, let alone finding a tech forum. Anyway, the FAQs:
1. What is your budget?
Pretty much limitless to be honest, but obviously would prefer to pay as little as possible. We don't need a powerful machine, just one that won't break after a few years.
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
Small enough to be portable.
3. What screen resolution do you want?
Doesn't really matter, just not too small. Standard/ medium size is fine.
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
Portable.
5. How much battery life do you need?
More rather than less.
6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?
No.
7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.)
Nothing beyond MS word.
8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need?
Probably not loads. Whatever is standard in laptops.
9. If you are considering specific sites to buy from, please post their links.
Nope.
10. How long do you want to keep your laptop?
The next 10 years.
11. What kind of Optical drive do you need? DVD ROM/Writer,Bluray ROM/Writer,Etc ?
DVD ROM is fine.
12. Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons.
No idea about different brands. Couldn't really care less.
13. What country do you live in?
UK.
Any recommendations would be appreciated, thanks very much.
