Casual Junior Member 384 posts Joined: Mar 2010	Hi there. Looking for a netbook/notebook for college. 1. Preferred Brand : Anything reliable, preferably not Acer. (Have seen people have bad experiences with that brand) 2. Budget : 1k - 1.5k 3. Usage : Word-processing, Internet-surfing. (No lag please) 4. Preferred laptop/screen size : 12"-13" maybe? As long as it's easy to carry around. Thanks a lot. This post has been edited by sukirani: Mar 29 2014, 05:46 PM

Casual Junior Member 384 posts Joined: Mar 2010	Hi there I'm back with a slightly different preference. 1. Preferred Brand : Anything except ASUS, Acer and Apple 2. Budget : <2k 3. Usage : College (business) so word-processing and Internet (strong wi-fi) as well as a clear camera for video calls. 4. Preferred laptop/screen size : 14-inch and below. Additional request: Long battery-life, backlit keyboard, light and portable since I'll be carrying it and walking A LOT. Thanks again sifus.

What if I take that option out? Will it open up to more choices? As I said, trying to avoid Asus and Acer.
