Default Laptop Decision

I am looking into purchasing a new laptop for business purposes, and for travel. I would not classify myself as having very good knowledge about computers. I am looking for something along these lines.....

Well, they all have integrated video, so they won't really play modern games at all. They'll work great for all the other stuff you mentioned, though. I'd personally choose the Sony, just for the core 2 duo.

If you want to play modern games at all, you'll have to find something with a dedicated video card.
