    Hi folks, so I have done a search on this and a lot of the results have bought up people looking for recommendations on laptops in the 750€+ range. I am not in a position to spend that money on one at the minute, max spend would be around the 450€ mark.

    I'm starting a course in software development which will involve coding and programming. Besides that it will get typical office use with Word/Excel and the like. Mobility is not that important, I don't mind if it's a little bulky. Warranty not a huge issue as long as it's got one. Have always used Windows, so I would be more inclined to one that runs it.

    I wouldn't consider myself a dunce when it comes to tech, I'm just looking for some help from those who are more experienced and knowledgeable!
    I understand RAM is a key component and an SSD? Thanks for any help and suggestions on a purchase.
