Hi, can help me suggest a good laptop

1. Brand. - Any (except Acer!)
2. Budget. <3k
3. *Usage. -Full HD video playback(with HDMI output to plug to HDTV) & internet browsing & office(word, excel,PP)
4. Size. < 13" (14" or bigger is a no-no!), lighter better, will need to carry it around to library.
5. if possible, a 3.0 USB for my future external Hardisk...


Tq.
