Hi,looking for a laptop and I was hoping that people here could suggest me something.
Looking for a 14" or 15.6" laptop, 14" preferred.
A better sound card will be a pleasant plus point.
Usage is CPU centric but not much multi-tasking required...
General office apps, IE 9 and music apps(using headphones) are the major uses for the machine.
Brand is important - HP & Sony are the two decent choices Ive come to terms with.
Decent graphics card is probably not an option in laptops but GPU usage is little to none - only 2D graphics is important, 3D not so much. Still, something like GT430M is welcome if possible in budget.
Please suggest should I wait for Ivy bridge based machines to arrive? As they will have quite a bit higher battery backup??
