Buying a laptop

Mobile Tech

Im in the market for a laptop. It will be mostly for coding.

I will be using it to run a smallish web server, (for development stages). Not sure if it will be running Linux, or Windows yet. Haven't decided between LAMP or WAMP.

So i need a powerful rig (needs to run Apache, MySQL, etc. and lets be honest Dota and cs:go are also a must) but i don't want it to be too large or bulky. Need a happy medium. Will need to carry it to school everyday. So, what do you guys think is the best rig for the money? I am looking to spend <$900.

This is a dell that I like, although screen size could be smaller. http://www.amazon.com/Dell-Inspiron-i7559-763BLK-Full-HD-GeForce/dp/B015PYYDMQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1453913282&sr=1-1&keywords=dell+inspiron+15+7000

Please share whatever you have got in mind.

Thanks in Advance.

I hear the XPS laptops are pretty great for coding. A used macbook would be pretty good for it too. I always like 4:3 or 5:4 laptops for code.

You can get an X220 for ~$150, they can install core boot and install whichever OS you want, including OSX and they are cheap and parts are everywhere.
