A relative of mine is staying in the US for some time (Chicago if I remember correctly). Now then, since computers are a lot cheaper to buy there I decided to update my old machine by completely replacing it.
Now then, on to the problem; I was once interested in computers and kept track of all the new technologies that came out, but by the time that Pentium 3 came out I sort of stopped caring for the IT world and now I know little to nothing about modern day machines and I do mean NOTHING.
With that in mind I need someone to help me customize a good rig. The budged is something around 1.500-1.700$, the laptop will mostly be used for family purposes (internet, documents, music and so on), however a game or two will also be played.
Time is rather short as my relative will only be there for a week or so more and I am hoping for some quick and constructive advice here.
Thank you in advance.
