Hello, my girlfriend's dad is looking for a new laptop, of which I know nothing, so I asked him to answer the standard set of questions. It seems to me like it doesn't need to do anything more complicated than play Blu-rays. Can anyone offer up any suggestions? Thanks!

(Around $800.00)
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?

(I would like to view dvd's and blue rays on it so whatever is recommended for this)

(Not sure what the choices are but it would be stationary most of the time using ac)
