    Budget: ~400, no more than 500.

    Intended use: Internet, Media, Microsoft Office suite (has to be able to handle large excel files/formulas), some gaming (nothing too serious). I would want at least an i3 processor, if not i5.


    Mobility: Lighter the better, though this isn't a deal breaker.

    Warranty: I'd survive without, can fix most things myself.


    What Operating System do you use? Windows, all other computers I use are 7.

    I would be willing to go for a refurb (strongly thinking of this (http://www.laptopsdirect.ie/hewlett-packard-a1-refurbished-hp-elitebook-8460p-intel-core-i5-2520m-4gb-2-a1-hp8460p/version.asp)

    Another I've seen around the price range would be the Toshiba Satellite.

    Just wondering does anyone have any recommendations on a laptop with these specs?
