<p>I agree with the above, for the tasks the OP want to perform on the computer, the inspiron is more than enough. Additionally, the inspiron’s specs are pretty good and it’s from costco. </p>
<p>However, I want to point out that more RAM and a bigger HDD should not be deciding factors in buying laptops. Both are relatively cheap and easily upgradeable. Processor and graphics on the other hand, are definitely not upgradeable. When they are obsolete, the only way to get a better one is to buy a new laptop.</p>
