why not just build a new desktop for that budget?  built mine for less than $800
Can't carry a desktop around.


When you get a new laptop, reinstall Windows 10 on it to get rid of all the bloatware. Just download Windows 10 from Microsoft and make a bootable USB with it, then install. Works much better than just unistalling the crap.

I got an Acer in 2009 before high school finished, it was soso, i think all i was annoyed with was Acer labelled programs like some webcam program and, a harddrive locker from memory, but i think you get similar stuff on HP, Dell, and whatnot, the only tech issue i had with it was the screen stopped working after i but my thumb through it because i died in a game...:/

Dell is good i had it for long time and with big screen and never had dells programs i got it in end of 2011 when i started playng convoy i think
Dell is way too overpriced.

I have an acer aspire e1 571g and it's ok but the fans suck the mouse-pad is pretty bad, i hurried to get a laptop 2 years ago thats why i wish i went for asus instead of acer, but it works well overall and im thankful for it and so you should be to get it  :)
I couldn't find a Asus laptop with a decent GPU at this price range. The only one I could find was this: Asus K555LB-DM109T
Price is basically same for this and the Acer one I'm thinking of buying. I'll have to do some research to see which one is better.

Asus has made some pretty good quality things, and I don't see yalls issues with HP mines hitting the 4 year mark and it still trucks along. it plays ATS and ets2 so that's really all I need. it isn't a gaming laptop, of course, but it gets the job done for those PC exclusives such as CS or tf2 or the truck simulators. basically, it does what I want it to, and I'm a happy gal.
I had an HP before, hinges broke out within 6 months of buying, could be my fault, but yeah the built quality was beyond horrible, If I wanted I could bend the whole display ._.

I already own a decent PC (need fixes though), I'll moving out to College/University soon enough as this is my final year at High School. I won't be carrying around my PC obviously. That's why I want a new laptop.

All in one PCs....? no thanks.

YEP IT IS

You're taking the definition of mobile literally. Because you can move it without special equipment doesn't mean its convenient. We use the term mobility with convenience in mind.

You can't stow a All-In-One in a college backpack, or even a travel bag.

Not to mention, how're you going to power it if you can't access an outlet? What if you're working and need to go mobile? What if you lose power? This is why I use and prefer a laptop for almost everything I do computer-wise. My HP is hitting 4 years and the battery still lasts for 4+ hours like it were new. I'm very impressed with this machine.
Anyway, I'm off-topic. The all-in-ones are neat for a limited space office but are in no way conveniently mobile.

If i would be buying a new laptop i would probably go for an ASUS for about $1000.
Even thow i wouldnt use it for hardcore gaming since i have my desktop pc for that. Would use it for school stuff and movies and such.. more easy stuff.
