Driver Station Laptop

We too are looking for a new laptop. This year we used the small Acer laptop that came in our rookie KOP. That being said, we weren't too happy with it. The battery life leaves something to be desired, and it isn't really powerful computing wise.

We're looking in to getting a Thinkpad T440S, which our school has for our computer lab. My experience has been great with them. They've got a really long battery life, a fast CPU, and are all around a great laptop. It's above your budget but I think it's well worth the price.
