1. Preferred Brand = Asus, Lenovo
2. Budget = 2.5K to 4K
3. Usage = Emails, youtube, web surfing, mobility, so battery life/weight is a huge factor & must have SSD
4. Preferred laptop/screen size = 13" to 15", prefer 16:10 but 16: 9 is ok too.

Additional note: I am looking for a Macbook pro 13" alternative.(want a few choices b4 decide, instead of just Apple)
Basically I want a laptop that is

1. Reliability & responsive & mobility(these 3 factors are up most important, will be using these for many years)
2. The User(not me) is an impatient guy. Dont want to wait HDD loading, so SSD is a MUST.
3. Battery life must be quite long.
4. Weight = depending on screen size, prefer to be close macbook pro kind of weight.

Might be buying these stuff by Wed, hopefully can get answer by then. icon_rolleyes.gif
