I found looking for a laptop so hard, loads of different technical specifications. CPU, GPU, RAM, HDD, WLAN and on and on and on.

Finally, I came across this little beauty a year and a half ago, it was a little outside my price range but boy am I glad I went for it.

Let's boil all those horrible acronyms down to what actually matters.

1/ It's fast - super fast, it's got a nice dual core 64 bit processor from Intel, couple with 4 Gig of DDR 3 ram.
What does that mean I hear you ask? It means it'll chew through pretty much any programme you throw at it, it'll let you watch HD movies on youtube or anywhere else on the internet and it'll keep you set for the next few years at least.

2/ It's got a really nice, 15.6 inch HD screen, so everything looks beautiful on it - It's not too big and not too small, make no bones about it I wouldn't enjoy lugging this thing around everywhere, but I have and continue to make the occasional trip out of town with it, and it's not too big and cumbersome that it becomes a problem.

What does this mean for you? Well it means you get a future proofed laptop with a nice big screen that can be used by all the family for the years to come, yeah its slightly more expensive than the average entry level laptop but trust me you won't regret it.
