What is a good laptop to buy?

I'm going away to boarding school, and need a good laptop for under $600. I have an acer now and it sucks. The battery lasts barely an hour.

What is a good laptop that I can buy for not that much, with GREAT battery life (at least a couple of hours). Preferably something that I can purchase at walmart....

I'm not a gamer or anything.

    I will strongly recommend you Dell Inspiron 15R 1570MRB 15.6-Inch Laptop having good battery life. As it will be under your budget and fulfills your all requirements. You will experience HD graphics and good quality sound. This will last for you for 3-4years. When you are getting all things at reasonable price in this laptop then dont go for expensive one like Apple.You can check this out at
