My current laptop is from 2010. So I think it's way past due for a replacement. I mentioned this to a co-worker and he asked me what I used it for. My laptop is strictly for entertainment. It usually only gets used when I'm away on vacation to have something to keep me occupied at night or if it's raining.
I don't do any gaming with it. Just internet browsing, Youtube watching, ESPN streaming, other streaming, etc. He said since it's only an entertainment type of device that I would be better of with a Microsoft Surface tablet instead of a full blown laptop. He said the battery life is much better with the Surface (although that usually doesn't matter since I have it plugged in mostly).
My current laptop screen size is 15". From what I can tell the biggest screen on a Surface is 13". I know 2 inches doesn't sound like much but as I get older and my eyes are getting worse, I do like a big screen.
I am going to take a look at a Surface later next week but which one would be ideal for my usage?
