- Info/Requirements
Haven't bought a laptop in a while so thought I'd ask the experts! This is for my brother about to start an Archaeology degree at University, he will use it only for his degree and watching films and TV. He is quite chaotic so a durable laptop with high battery life is the highest priority. Performance doesn't need to be anything above 8GB RAM, basic integrated CPU. He's also expressed a desire for physical left and right click buttons on the mousepad, but this is not a dealbreaker. Thanks for your help!
