My favorites are Dell or windows. You can find lots of great options on amazon. I like windows because it's affordable and reliable. Most of their laptops are about $300-$700, with free shipping. You can also find some good deals at Best Buy, especially with the holiday season, prices will go down, so you'll probably have a pretty good selection to choose from. Good luck! :)

My personal preference is for Dell computers both laptop and desktops. I like the fact that I can either go online and take a preconfigured unit, configure my own unit or call their sales phone number and talk with one of their computer specialist about my specific needs and configure a unit. I have done all three and have never had a days worth of problems.
Dell builds their units to order. Stock units, which are still built to order ship generally within 3 to 5 days depending on their backlog. Customer specific orders or the stock modified orders are quoted as two week delivery times. I have never waited that long.
Best of all concerning any laptop you may purchase is the price. With the popularity of Tablet computers you should be able to find what you're looking for from any manufacturer be it through online purchase or at a big box store for less than half of what you are looking to spend.
Since this laptop is for school I do suggest purchasing the in-home service policy. Depending on if you are in college or high school the laptop could be subject to damage not usually seen with business laptop use. Having the repair shop come to you is worth the extra cost should the laptop get damaged and need repair.
