New laptop needed.

BlueFlowers

I previously had a Dell Inspiron laptop and it was working fine until it kinda exploded a few weeks ago.....

The main things I would be using my laptop would be for Uni, so projects, Internet, and making videos and stuff. I would also be storing pictures in it. I'm not a gamer but I want a good laptop that will last a good few years, I guess my budget is €500aprox.......no Macs!! I don't have that much money!!

I have heard good things about Toshibias and surprisingly enough Lenovas?? I thought they were a weak brand???

Advice really needed and appreciated!!

Thank you!

I would recommend this toshiba.

Specs wise is really a very good value+free delivery
