If you have no serious requirements for the laptop, pay attention to the quality of the materials and the screen. For example, I prefer HP laptops for their materials, but their common problem is overheating. At the same time, there are 17-inch entry-level ASUS laptops which are made from quite cheap plastic but have almost perfect cooling system. So, as the technical data is not such important, you can just go to the shop and by something that would be suitable for you according to your budget.
