my cousin needs a laptop for school and I said id buy it for christmas for her and im not so big on the laptop game, not sure how mobile processors stack up im more of a desktop guy.

 

she told me she doesn't want a big one becase she has to carry it around. and she wants to be able to play the sims 4, shes not taking any classes that requires progress that are taxing maybe just like microsoft word and web browsing.

 

and stay under $700, when i say $500-$700 i dont mean link me a $714 laptop. and USD is the currency. online or instore is fine. dont count on black friday deals and all that as i dont shop around here I have a lot more money around mid december so thats when i buy stuff.
