So my dad is in dying need of a new notebook. His Vaio from 2002 just won't cut it anymore lol. He is on a budget although I don't know exactly how much(guessing it's sub-700). He will be using it as an email checker, web surfer, picture uploader and movie watcher. He needs excel(he likes powerpoint..lol) and a card reader that will read his compact drive card from his Sony camera that will upload photos. Any suggestions?
