laptop suggestions

[juiceblrc]

Hey everyone,

I want a cheap laptop say around $500 or less. I plan to use for internet, email, downloading, burning cd's & dvd's.

I may use it to stream movies to my TV. Do I need a good graphics card to do this?

I will NOT be using this computer for gaming.

I was thinking of getting this: http://www.dell.com/ca/p/inspiron-15r-combo-mod/pd?oc=ni15r_ft_2e&model_id=inspiron-15r-combo-mod

THANKS!

Myself am not a fan of Dell, I would look at Toshiba, H.P., ASUS ,Sony. I just feel in the long run you would be much better off.

For your budget, you can only have onboard graphic card.

Asus is a better brand, Lenovo have best spec within your budget

All my new laptops will work with my movies and You Tube movies, and one is a pretty low powered Aser e-machine.
So I don't see you having a problem with any of the new laptops.
