I don't really need an optical drive.
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.
I prefer Lenovo, Dell and HP, because I have had good experiences with these brands.
I prefer not to buy Acer, since I've had horrible experiences with their laptops. They always broke very fast with careful use.
I won't be buying an Apple laptop, since I find the software terrible, and it's not compatible with every economic program.

13. What country do you live in?
The Netherlands, but I will visit America next week, so I'm hoping to pick something up there
14. Please tell us any additional information if needed.
A keypad would be great since I use that a lot for excel and programs like that.
A touchscreen would be nice but it's not a necessity.


I looked into the Lenovo Flex 15, it looked really good in my opinion, is it any good?

Thanks for reading this and trying to help me out
