My daughter's laptop is physically wearing out. It is a 13.3-inch Dell XPS 1330, weighing about 4 lbs (1.8 kg). This is about what I want her to carry: she has had shoulder surgery so a heavier laptop is out.
She plays a lot of games. She found an Alienware 14-inch that has an i7 36-something in at, along with a 1 TB hybrid Hd that comes with a 64GB SSD. The video card is an Nvidia 650 with 2GB DDR5. It is exactly what she wanted, but at 6.5 lbs minimum it is too heavy.
The only 13-inch Dells I'm seeing are UltraBooks. No go there.
I'm seeing a Toshiba Portege Z935-P300 with a 13.3-inch screen but Intel integrated graphics and an SSD. I don't see that a HD is available (she wants 1TB minimum), or a graphics card. Doubtful.
Any suggestions?
