Need computer help!

I have bought a lot from NewEgg, and always a good experience. I can vouch for HP's EliteBook line, as I work in an HP shop, and deploy a lot to my user base. If their consumer models follow suit, you won't be disappointed. Before we were HP, we were Lenovo, and they are nice also, but lots of battery and keyboard replacements. Plus you likely won't find a Lenovo - even an IdeaPad - in your range unless it's a refurb.
