I am looking for school laptop in the 650 - 750 dollar range, I've been looking around but can't find much, any suggestions seeing as this is the only forum capable of discussion on this matter.

Pcmag seems to like the U400. They wrote a good review of it.

Imo, you do not really need much for a "school computer", considering you're not in college. Anyhow, I think a 350-500 dollar computer should serve you just fine.

Meh, I will be using it for programming as well and I want it to be powerful for anything I might be doing. Plus the graphics card can be used for expedited rainbow table / data recovery.

This HP dm4 series laptop I'm using has 8GB of RAM, an i7 processor, a great graphics card, and everything I could ask for. It was only $800. But that was around Black Friday, so the price might have gone up.

Buy directly from HP or some other computer manufacturer; it will be cheaper and you won't get offered a ton of software (who needs Microsoft Office?)

Memory is cheap. Don't worry about getting 250 GB or something, that's still a ton, you can buy a TB for like $30.

Worry about RAM and video cards and processors and stuff.

Wait 5 more months before buying your computer so you can get the same RAM and CPU for 75% less expensive.

If you have a valid Windows 7 COA sticker, it isn't morally wrong.

Pirating, going against morals?

Hah! Because you think Microsoft doesn't get enough money yet?

You want to know what goes against morals? Lots of things that Microsoft does, you can trust me on that.

Stealing is still illegal, but besides our disagreements on morals, are the laptops any good?

No, they're overpriced. I got Intel HD Graphics 3000, i5-2430M CPU and 6GB RAM for $550, and it wasn't even on sale.
