I'm buying a laptop for my sister as a Christmas gift, but have no idea what to buy.
all she knows is that she wants at least a 15" screen.
All she really needs it for is basic stuff, email, web browsing 'n such.
She also plays some dumb flash games from neopets and subeta a lot, so it would have to be able to run multiple windows of those pretty well, that's about it really.
The battery life won't matter too much, she'll mostly be using it at home.
I'd like to stay under $500 if possible, maybe $600 at most if I really need to.
Anyone have any suggestions on what kind of specs I may need for this?
Thanks !
Oh, and I forgot to mention, I'm fine with refurbished/open box stuff if that helps, I got my desktop refurbished a long time ago and had no problems.
I was looking around Newegg and was considering something like these, but I'm really not sure if its what I need. I was just going by price pretty much.
