Laptops

[Jntg4]

I might be getting a laptop. I need a cheap one that can hold some software like Photoshop, Game Makers, etc., has Windows 7, and can also hold a few games (casual, not ones that take up a shitload of space like 1st-person shooters). I can't go over $300.

I have found a few that fit the bill online, but I wan to hear some suggestions. Any good ones out there for that price?

My mom bought me one yesterday on Black Friday. But, it's for Christimas. It was only a $300 laptop, but it will still do the work.

HD is a good laptop and that's all our laptops-computers in the house now.

Would a netbook work for the requirements I posted?

Possibly, but it depends. You might have to download, etc, then. But I'm not sure.

Barely anything works on a mac. And I can't find any MacBooks less than 700 dollars, and I need to keep it under 300.

I need one for college, I want the one that Dr. Dre endorses.

Which is what?

Which is what?

HP® Official Store —Buy HP Laptops, Notebook PCs, Printers, Desktop Computers, Handhelds, Scanners, Monitors, and Calculators direct from HP

These ones have the Dr. Dre 'Beats Audio.'

Although, I don't think you can get one for 300. For that you'd have to go like Toshiba or Sony.

HP is pretty reliable. I've got a top-of-the-line Toshiba Satellite that is very nice and I know they have a model in that price range.

Just make sure that those programs are Norton and McAfee.
