Well if that all that you mentioned is all your sis is going to do then the answer is yes. If she does typing, homework etc. it should be fine too. I think a 15.4 inch is good for the eyes vs 1 more portable 13.3 inch. 14 inch would be perfect for bringing to school or college. That laptop is at a good price too.

That would be the best for your sister. Fast processor and wide screen. That won't hurt much and price is very cute too.

I say go for it.
