Hullo. So it's about time I buy a new laptop since I've been forced to travel a lot more and a desktop isn't as feasible anymore. Only I'm not that terribly familiar with laptops and would like some help/suggestions. I'd like to know maybe models I should look into/avoid and the kind of specs I should be looking for my needs.

I have a budget of around $1500 CAD (I'm based in Canada). I'd prefer it to be of a lighter weight/thin because I am a tiny person having to lug it around.

I'll be using the laptop primarily for work (Microsoft Suites, Adobe CC). I also do game (Guild Wars 2, Blizzard Games, etc) but I don't mind running them on medium settings, 30 FPS.

Thanks in advance for your help~
