So, my niece is starting at Stellenbosch Uni this year, and as the IT family guy i've been asked to source a lappy. I've browsed for a few hours now, and checked out all usual suspects, but i'm struggling a bit to find what i'm looking for. When did laptops get so expensive?
Anyway, I'm thinking a 13" would be a good portable size for swinging between classes. Things i normally won't compromise on are stuff like 4GB RAM minimum, should be an intel chip, and reputable brand: asus, dell, hp, samsung, sony. Not that keen on Gigabyte, Acer, sahara etc.
Budget is prolly around R5k, and while i'd usually spec at least an i3, it looks like that's gonna be difficult in this range.
So, whatchoo got?
