Thinking now more in terms of an actual laptop. Any suggestions on make etc? Touch screen would be nice - or would it? Anyone have experience with one? Something preferably relatively light, with a good easy-to-see screen, decent battery life, a few USB slots and maybe a CD drive is the kind of thing I'm looking for. And obviously a sturdy and responsive keyboard. Probably 4GB RAM and maybe 500 gig to 1 tb HDD.

GOOD ADVICE: Go bigger on RAM! Windows 10 OS eats up 2 GB of RAM itself just to operate. And only like 3.45 of that 4 GB is actually usable [like storage space on a hard drive, they always fuck you.]. So 4 GB of RAM while running Windows 10 is really like having 1.5 GB This is life.

Yeah I'm going for an 8 gb model, definitely. And 1tb hdd space. To hell with SSD and their ****ing tiny storage: I need a proper hard disk.
