    Advice on purchase a new laptop


    Well, hello guys.
    I am planning to buy a new laptop. I will buy it in Miami.
    I would like a laptop with non glossy screen 15"-16" Primary task I will be performing is searching the web. No games.
    I would like Core i3 processor. SSD would be nice but then again it will be too expensive. If not SSD I would want HDD 7200 rpm.
    RAM 2GB would be OK
    I don't mind Windows 7 home premium. I will be most of the time at home with my laptop so 4 hours of battery life will do.
    Optical drive, no need of blu-ray drive. Webcam not necessary.
    I have been searching for a couple of weeks now and Dell is the only brand I could find with non glossy screen.
    At Tiger Direct they don't sell Dell laptop. I wonder if Best Buy does.
    But if one of you guys knows a retail store in Miami please let me know. I will be staying closed to Miam Intl. Airport.
    If one of you guys could recommend a good and reliable brand of laptop I would appreciate it.
    Will I need to buy an external HDD for my backups or is there a possibility of two internal HDD's???
    I also consider a refurbished laptop. Is it a good or a bad idea??

    Maybe this post does not belong here.
    I wish I knew how to move it.

    Costco sells Dell laptops.

    They have a store about 8 miles south of the airport. There may be a store even closer.

    Best Buy sells Dell laptops. They would have many stores around Miami.
