getting a rugged laptop at 22.5k is next to impossible AFAIK but you can check out : Asus X53U-SX358D or Lenovo G585 (59-348455).

The closest one that comes in line for rigidity and sturdiness is HP ProBook , or Lenovo Thinkpads. (In terms of price).

I have a probook 4410s... It fell and then after few months fan failed. So I removed and saw that the mould thingy which holds screws in place broke off. The keyboard comes off if I pull hard

But mine is an old model

In other laptops , the display might have broke as well as the body of the laptop too.
I never owned one of these , but felt that they are built better than an average mainstream notebook.

HD4000 may be weak but Trinity processing power is even more low so decide if you want to sacrifice more processing power for slightly better GPU.

yet to use any HD4000 based laptop but i can play low system requirement games even on power saver mode with A6 4400M without any lag but some softwares take time to start up. i am using HP 4445S.

Seeing your usage I'd recommend to go for an i3 based laptop with HD4000 graphics. It will be a better config than a A4 APU based laptop.
