so my laptop I bought at the beginning of college (Dell Insperion 1558)  finally gave a couple days ago and I suspect its the motherboard.  anyways I am looking for some help in finding one that would best suit my needs.  I am a business information systems major who is constantly on my computer for school work or just entertainment.   my last computer while had power felt cheap and the plastic casing broke towards the end of its life I need a sturdy replacement.  I'm looking for something that I can use years from now hopefully taking it into my first job where lots of technical companies now are implementing bring your own computer policies from what I understand.  my budget is <1500 usd.  

I would greatly appreciate any help since I'm currently filling this out on my phone which is a bitch, thank you in advance!
