Stop making new thread on this. Since it seem like you don't know what you are looking for (one thread you were looking to play Skyrim or games like it on a Ultrabook with an HD4000, now you are getting a regular laptop without the Skyrim requirement), you keep omitting certain requirements you said in your previous thread. Keep making new threads and have all of the information all disorganize will net you a poor laptop for your needs.

One little information can very well change what laptop you should get over another.[/i]

[b]8) How long you want the battery life to be?[/b] - [i]Maximum battery life rated by the manufacturer is often done in an environment that is best suited to get the most out of the battery.

[b]9) Are the looks of the laptop an important factor to you?[/b] - [i]Do you want a stylish-futuristic looking laptop similar to the Alienware?

[b]11) Is there anything else you are looking for in a laptop that have not been ask?[/b] - [i]Beyond what had already been asked, the other minor things may be ignored when a laptop is being recommend, so you will need to mentioned it beforehand. For example, you need a laptop with a HDMI port. Or you are using a mouse to play your games with your right hand and would like the fan exhaust to be on the back or the left side.[/i]
