I need to replace my 64-bit win7 lenovo g555 work laptop with a 32-bit one because many of the programs I need to run are not compatible. I just bought it 6 months ago but it turned out to be money wasted for that reason (anybody want a deal on it?) Also the trackpad is atrocious and picks up any stray finger movement bouncing the cursor all over the place while I'm trying to type. I like having a trackpad though rather than having to carry a mouse around. I need something lightweight, between 12-14" screen. Good keyboard for someone who needs to type fast, with a good trackpad that doesn't interfere. I also want it to have a strong wifi client adapter. It can be either XP Pro or Win7 just has to be 32-bit. I don't need a graphics card, although the option for HDMI out is nice these days (but not mandatory). I mainly use this for entering data in google docs, and web surfing, but also run audio and video calibration programs, as well as programs for programming universal remote controls for RTI, URC, Pronto, AMX, etc. And running various IT related troubleshooting/diagnostics programs. So nothing heavy duty. I just want those things I do run to be quick and snappy, and to be able to have several web browsers, and some of these programs open at the same time with no performance decrease.
Any ideas? Looking for something very reasonably priced (between $300-600). Thanks.
