1. What is your budget?
- £250 (I can go over, but not by too much)

2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?

- It will generally always be plugged in. This doesn't matter.

6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?
- League of Legends (Whatever quality, Low-High) LoL isn't too hard to max out so I'm guessing a low-end laptop could run it on high.
- Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (Low-Med, I always play this game on lowest on my desktop anyway. I don't care about graphics too much.)

7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.)

12. Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons.
- I have never really owned my own laptop in my older years so I don't really care for any brands. But my mums current Lenovo laptop's USB ports broke when I plugged a cameras wire into them. But other than that. It seems like a solid brand.

13. What country do you live in?
- United Kingdom, Northern Ireland

14. Please tell us any additional information if needed.
- I need it to be able to have about 4 USB ports. And be able to charge multiple devices at once. (This isn't overly important but I need to atleast be able to charge my iPhone)

Hey,

Here's some laptops that fit your budget!

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lenovo-15-6-Inch-Notebook-Bluetooth-Integrated/dp/B012VIZP80/ref=sr_1_94?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1445512291&sr=1-94&keywords=laptop

Probably a brand you've never heard of but they seem pretty good based on views. Ultrabook, so slightly smaller screen than standard size laptop screen but lighter and more portable.
