    If you want trusted brands like dell you can try the dell inspiron 15-5558.
    There are cheaper laptops out there but these are some nice laptops with some dedicated graphics if you ever want to try your hand at some gaming.

    All of those are pretty standard specs. Makes much more sense to go for fast 250gb SSD and small portable (but up to 1tb storage) HD than slow 1 tb HD on laptop. You don't need Win 8 - you can upgrade to Win 10 from Win 7. TBH I think you'd be well adviced to have a look on Adverts - I've bought and sold many a reliable decent spec laptop there. If you buy one with core i5 or i7 cpu you'll sell it again easily enough whereas if you buy a new with Celeron or AMD cpu you'll have difficulty selling.
