    I'll hopefully be heading to college in September, and so I am currently looking to buy my first laptop. Nothing too fancy, just something basic and reliable. These are the specs I'd like to have:
    Processor: Intel I3, preferably 2nd gen.
    RAM: 4GB
    HDD: Anything over 300GB
    USB ports: Preferably 3 or more, with USB 3.0 being a nice bonus.
    Graphics: Integrated Intel graphics will do fine.
    Battery life: Minimum 4 hours
    OS: Windows 7

    Budget is between 400 and 500 euro, brand doesn't really matter, as long as its reliable. Will mainly be using it for college work, browsing, watching the odd movie(high quality screen isn't too important), and very light gaming, as in Age of Empires. All advice is greatly appreciated. Cheers, Mike.
