I'm trying to find a laptop that will fit my needs. I don't take the laptop out often, I travel around 3-4 times a year by plane.I work from home mostly. I need something fast, because a) I don't want to spend alot of time with webpages/documents uploading b) I am a stay at home mom and want to spend most of the time with my kids. Usually I am manipulating webpages online, and usually have multiple programs open (maybe 5 powerpoints, a few word documents, maybe adobe also, multiple webpages, an excel spreadsheet, also maybe a few images. Sometimes I also insert short video clips/watch them for content, etc. I also have to conduct live chat sessions (no video), and have maybe a few things open during the chat, but then not so much). My current computer really slows me down. I am on a budget, though, so don't want to pay more than $650 .

My current computer really slows me down. I am on a budget, though, so don't want to pay more than $650 . Also I am wondering if I should get a 15 or 17" screen. The 17" seem enormous, but since I'm working mostly from home and almost never take it anywhere except for a bi-yearly conference and a 2 other trips per year... |

That processor is the Ivy Bridge and I believe it will be in desktops first. But i expect some of the more powerfull Sandy Bridge processors will be seeing decreased prices. Almost all the companies demostrated new cheaper Ultrabooks at the CES held a couple of months ago. These Ultrabooks are going to be priced cheaper then the first generation of Ultrabooks and will have the new processor. They are also releasing Ultrabooks with 15" screens. I've heard it's not the best time to buy because we are between technologies. I think you will see lots of new models coming out in the next 3 months and the older models will be reduced.

Unfortunately, finding a laptop based on the most recent components priced under $500 is highly unlikely. You’re even lucky to discover a good deal based on previous-generation technology. For instance, Intel just unleashed its eighth-generation family of CPUs for laptops, but most of what you’ll find for under $500 are products based on older chips dating back to Intel’s third-generation lineup. |

That said, buying a laptop with a processor launched at the end of 2015 isn’t exactly horrible (for now), and you’ll find a few scattered below sporting these sixth-generation chips. The clue to their age is in the CPU’s model number, such as the Core i3-7100U. The “7” indicates that it’s a seventh-generation chip, whereas the new Core i5-8250U is an eighth-generation model.
