I need something pro and light and for a decent price. I'm gonna be running software like Solidworks and MATLAB and some CFD programs, so I like i5 or some good processor.
I found this one, Samsung Q430. Looks pretty nice, can pick it up for ~650 on ebay. Anyone had/has it?
How bout this one? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834157408
Does HP still have bad rep for reliability? My last trash was HP and it broke.
I don't want to go much more than about $700. My only problem is that I want a reliable rig, my last laptop broke after not even 2 years. Plus this will be hauled around to a lot of places, so it better be tough (good mobo etc.)
Anyone got good suggestions?
