I work in the IT field and I am looking for an inexpensive laptop to study for IT certifications, open remote desktops for support, write programming code, and do some manipulation of computer graphics.

I found a PC I like, but it doesn't come with Windows 7 Pro:

I like the fact that the above PC has a good video card for the price. Anyone know where I could find a laptop with a similar video card, but available with Windows 7 Pro?
 
You try looking at Newegg - http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100017489%2040000032%204016%20600165139&IsNodeId=1&name=AMD%20A-Series&Order=PRICE&Pagesize=20#
That link should take you to the list of refurbs with Windows 7 Home Premium.
Edit: I see you are looking for one with Windows Pro so that list won't help.
