Laptop A
Ok, first of all, I need to find 1 laptop for myself. I am planning to have it replace my desktop, so I want it to be as good as possible for a price range of $1500. I will be using it to game and heavy multi-tasking between photoshop and other applications like such. I was looking at this system (CLICK HERE), but with tax it will be close to $2000 which is pushing it a bit.
edit: I've done some hunting and like this (1A) and this one (2A). I like 2A better because it supports resolution of 1440x900, but according to this comparison (Comparison chart) it seems that 2A is 802.11n Wireless LAN, and 1A is 802.11a/b/g Wireless LAN. This means if I buy 2A, the laptop would bearly work on any other network because G and B are the most common. Also, it doesn't say it has warranty or internal speakers for 2A, which makes me hesitate to jump the gun.
Laptop B
Now, I need to find a laptop for my relative. She doesn't use it much, except for email + web search. I am looking for maybe a $300-$500 laptop for her. Extremely low specs but not low enough to not multi task between IE browsers. Maybe 512MB ram and like 40 gb HD or something. NO CELERONS PLEASE!!! Celerons are truely garbage in my book.
