OK. I'm notorious around here for being a turn of the century technology mind. i.e. 18th century. My Dell Inspiron laptop is getting old and I want to get a new one. I have no idea what to buy and when I research these things, I want to go on an 8 state killing spree given all of the specs, options, etc. that are available that I don't understand. I'm using it for nothing more than the following:
1. Work network (law firm that runs outlook, excel, Lexis/Nexis, adobe, etc)
2. Internet (yahoo, yahoo messenger, skype, banking, etc)
3. No gaming
4. Budget - $1500 or less
5. No Apple products
While I'm not using it for anything exotic, I do use it a ton when I work from home. Slow connections aggravate me, particularly when I work in Word. Translation: I want a fast, capable machine.
I'm not interested in building anything. I'm not interested in considering this over that. I'm not interested in being educated on all of the specs (some day I will be, but today is not that day). All I'd like are folks' specific laptop recommendations. Thanks in advance
