A friend of mine is looking for a new laptop to replace her 5 year old macbook. Nothing gaming related other than some facebook games here and there.
Country: USA
Budget: $500 max
Size: Looking for something around 13" and less then 5 lbs. The lighter the better.
Planned usage: Microsoft Office, Netflix, Music, Facebook, Tumblr, etc.
I can't find too many smaller models with a dvd/cd drive. It would be preferable if I could find a laptop with one.
Brand wise, I've recommended Lenovo to a few friends, since I got a Y580 a couple years ago which has been running great since. I'm just not sure of the sub-$500 lenovo machines.
Thanks.
I was looking at these two for her, but I'm thinking she could maybe get away with something less powerful for a bit less money.
