I have a user who is looking to buy a laptop for his personal use. He usually works just the usual msoffice, outlook stuff. He is also good with songs so he would want to have a good music collection. Maybe a few video albums.

Not much else though he is creative and would like to play around with a bit of photoshop and stuff. Is a noob.
