I am looking to get a laptop for personal use. I just picked up a SD card camcorder and I am going to need something half decent for storage and editing. Mostly everything comes with MS Home and Office now a days so that's a given. I am not a gamer by any means.
Main uses:
music storage (iTunes)
photo storage/editing
video editing
net surfing
email
I want to get something that isn't going to be obsolete within a year. That will have enough memory and speed so it won't slow down running multiple applications.
What are your suggestions? I see a lot of computers on sale right now and I am not sure where to start? I know if I go to a big box store they will try and sell me something I don't really need. Physical size isn't an issue as it will mostly be used at home on my lap or hooked to the television.
Let me know what you think I need. Thanks in advance
Links to retailers would be great too.
PS: Less than $700 prefered
