Oh now my sister says she needs a number pad with the laptop, which model should I get? Only 15 inch ones have the number pad right

Guys, I'm looking for a new laptop

1. Preferred Brand: ASUS or any, except lenovo.
2. Budget: 2k, or as low as possible, can add another 200-300.
3. Usage: uni, programming etc, no gaming.
4. Preferred screen size: 14
5. Preferred processor: i5 fifth gen or latest.
6. Weight: As light as possible, will be carrying it always.

is it possible to get 8gb ram version? as will be doing a lot of virtulization stuff and intense coding, intel is preferred for its VT-x tech.

For the acer brand u suggested, I can add in another 4gb myself right? Will it void the warranty? It will void the warranty right if a sticker is placed at the screw area.

based on the 3 models below, isnt the older models more worth for money and higher performance?
I saw in IT Fair today the latest 572g-57N0, but to upgrade its ram to 16gb will make the laptop cost to be around the 591g-73A2, which has a quadcore processor, What do you guys recommend?
the old model price might be before gst..
Anyone knows where still can get around this price?

To get the new model or old model?

Hi bro. What do you think about the new Acer V Nitro Black Edition with Skylake i7 chip ?

is there any alternative ways to upgrade my laptop without losing much value? currently i'm having dell 7447 hd core i7 1920x1080 non backlit. I'm thinking about to change my laptop to other model with bigger screen size, 14 inch is just too small for me. I'm willing to top up another 1k for bigger screen size/performance, is there any place i can do that?
