Decent processor for everyday use on the net (skype, netflix, facebook, youtube, etc) no gaming or anything. Wifi. At least 80GB hard drive. At least 11.6 inch display. Webcam & mic. Don't want Windows 8 after reading user reviews! Any suggestions?

Windows 7 is no longer an option for consumer laptops. Buy some Core i3 or i5 laptop with Windows 8 Pro. Only with Pro you're eligible for a free downgrade to Windows 7 Professional.
