I have never purchased Laptops so do not know much about what to look for in shopping for one.
Need to buy a laptop for my daughter who will be starting Highschool this Fall. No she doesn't "need" one but Daddy stupidly told her if she graduated 8th with nothing lower then a B on her final card she would get one. Damn me she did it.
Definitely doesn't need to be top of the line, most she will use it for is Youtube/music/movies some light gaming 14yr old girl stuff etc, hopefully homework. I was think that for longevity hopefully last 4yrs of highschool should at least be SB gen cpu.
I'd like to stay under $500 if possible
If you would kindly point me in the right direction of what I am looking for
Which chip SKU's, brands, other basic spec's I should be looking at, even just a few resources to beef up on general laptop info
