Hi guys,
I've been looking at replacing my aging Dell XPS for a while and am struggling to find a decent spec laptop with good build quality for around the £1k mark that beats anything from Apple.
I have a good desktop machine but it's in the lounge and I usually sneak off to the spare room to study so the laptop comes in handy.
I would prefer to stick to Windows but as a mature student I have access to the Apple education store so can pick up a 13", 2.5 Ghz Retina display MacBook Pro for £1074 (rather than £1249).
All I'm looking for is a laptop which isn't too heavy (won't carry it about much), with a great screen and good keyboard for my studies. The better spec I can get the happier I'll be but I'll be using it for work primarily so gaming not a big factor.
