What Notebook should I get?

Hi guys, it's my sister's birthday soon and I want to buy her a new notebook so that she can take notes in university.
My budget is like 100~500 but it can be negotiable. Do you guys know any good notebooks that are in this year?
Thank you!

@SoCalKing:
Ohh thank you! What price range would you consider a good notebook?

If she wants to take type or edit notes then it would be best to just get a simple laptop that doesn't cost much and load it with windows office since the packages that come with this program are not sold along with the computer. I personally just torrent all the windows applications, have all 2013 applications thanks to that. Saved me a huge chunk of change, and worth it since it's not a program I use everyday.
Edit: since your sister is going off to college if you want her stuff to be legit from Microsoft and not from a torrent, Microsoft has a sale for University students [url=http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/en_US/pd/productID.259180100&WT.intid1=ODC_ENUS_FX102886268_XT102933909]here.[/url]

Couldn't really find many good Notebooks around that price range but check this one out.

Good reviews, plenty of space, 4GBs of Ram, runs on Intel, In your price range , Only thing is that it's Windows 8 which alot of people tend to not like since it's complicated?
