Hello everyone! Today I am doing a little research. "Research on what?", you may ask (or not, because of my title). I am looking for a computer. And I would like some advice from you guys. As you may know, I run Ubuntu (Linux), and plan to on this machine, so please keep that in mind. I have a few specifications down below.


 * Runs Ubuntu
 * Laptop, Light, 13" at biggest
 * (If Possible) Shaders Quality Graphics card with available Ubuntu Drivers
 * 8 GB of RAM (At least, could be more)
 * Solid State Hard Drive, with about 500 GB, could be more
 * Fairly decent battery life

So I know that these specs look like a pretty beefy computer, though I would like it to be smaller. I get that all of that might not be possible, but no harm done trying. I plan on using this machine for school, where all it needs is a good battery life and access to the internet, and at home, where I would do wiki stuff, play MC LOTR (if possible with Shaders), and whatever else we do with computers these days.

If you guys happen to know of any machines, or have any advice for me, then let me know! :)
