Laptop Recommendation

    Hi

    A friend is looking to replace their old jalopy ancient laptop so it'd be great if I could get some recommendations or links on here.
    I'm googling and comparing but any extra info is always welcome.

    Their needs are not fussy at all:

    Laptop will mostly be used at home, plugged in so battery life/weight not important
    Must have good quality built-in webcam/mic for Skype-ing
    Large capacity HDD - 320gb is ok but 500+ would be ideal
    DVD reader/Rewriter
    Bluetooth
    Wifi N
    RAM - 4gb min
    Screensize doesn't matter - normal 15.6 is fine
    Build quality robust - I was thinking Toshiba??
    Usage - internet/office/itunes and that's it
    Ports and connections - what comes as normal would do, no need for HDMI or dedicated graphics, but good aero-enabled graphics is needed

    Budget 500-700, hoping to get what they want for under the 500 which I'm sure can be done!

    Thanks
