Laptop for $500

iBlurr

I'm looking to buy my girlfriend a laptop for around $500. She won't be using it for gaming, however I would like as much bang for my buck. What are the best options out there? I would say at least a Quad Core CPU, 8GB ram and integrated graphics is an option however better if not.

She would happily settle for a crappy laptop, however I wont, I want something that will last and wont restrict her too much.

Thanks

Thank you. I like the look of that one, specs look good except from the fact it's not touchscreen. Anyone else with a better value laptop, let me know :)

What will she use it for? You might be better off just getting an iPad and Bluetooth keyboard tbh. The iPad is actually really powerful, well supported, and fun to use. The only “normal” task it is bad at is spreadsheets.
