7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.) The basics: Facebook, Office, Email.

8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need? Not too important, but 256gb+ would probably be good.

10. How long do you want to keep your laptop? 6+ years

11. What kind of Optical drive do you need? DVD ROM/Writer,Bluray ROM/Writer,Etc ? None.

12. Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons. No preferences. Lenovo has been good to me personally. HP had a reputation of less than stellar equipment, last I heard.

13. What country do you live in? USA

14. Please tell us any additional information if needed. This is for my 75yo stepmom. Not doing anything demanding of the laptop. A $350 purchase last year showed why you don't go cheap, as it lagged on the most basic tasks. Just need something solid, $600 max. Would like a Windows laptop, not a Chromebook, etc.

Thanks guys and gals!
