I've never needed a computer at home. I use my Playstation or phone for home Internet use. However, times change, & I pretty much need to go with it. Most likely, I'll have a business trip in 3 weeks which may require me taking online classes to immediately qualify for training while I'm there.
My price point is preferably $800. Has to be windows OS. I don't want any of that touch screen crap, and want to stay away from Windows 8.1; which I believe is touch optimized. I would like an i7 processor, but no less than i5. I donno if AMD still does laptop processors. The more RAM & HDD, the better obviously. It will be used for work every now and then, so must be able to run our Explorer & java based programs. I'll find out those specs tomorrow, which should be easily met.
Any input on brands, features, tech specs....to look for would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
