Need help. And advice. 

 

Looking  to buy a laptop.  But want best bang for my buck. Will be used on vacations for light Web usage photos movies basic day to do stuff.  Add bonus if I could play games but not needed.

 

Long  battery life

Storage

13-17 inch screen

Windows OS. (Wife)

SD card reader if possible.

No DVD rom needed. 

Would be great if it has swappable batterise.

 

Last laptop I bought had a pentium 2 in it and it was the late 90's

 

Thanks for the help

 

Bill
