Other details:
My girlfriend has an 4 year laptop that still works okey but is not the best and she wants a desktop since she does not like her small screen for doing a lot of thing so i was thinking about getting her a screen that is color accurate and a mouse and keyboard and a laptop doc so she has the look of a desktop but still her laptop as her main computer since she needs one for school anyway and after we get that setup i want to buy a new laptop that can easy handle her workload. So the main thing i need your help for is
 - Monitor

 - New Laptop

 - And a Doc (So she only has to plug in the doc and her charger instead of all her cables)
