All I plan to do with my laptop is surf, watch videos, mathematica/matlab, minimal gaming (don't need a gaming laptop, I don't mind playing games at lowest settings and resolution). I mainly want a laptop that can watch high quality videos without any lag. The main thing I'm looking for in a laptop is battery life. I would like it to be 14.1" but I can go with anything aound it (HD screen perhaps?). The laptop needs a DVD burner, card reader, and HDMI port. Bluetooth and webcam are optional but would be a plus. Hopefully the laptop can last me through college. Please try to keep it under $800, but I will consider laptops over it.
