Getting a laptop on Black Friday

Leonedes

Hey guys, so today is basically black friday, and i cant seem to decide which cheap, low end laptop I want to get. I've narrowed it down to the following three laptops:

1. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Asus+-+Laptop+/+Intel&%23174%3B+Core&%23153%3B+i3+Processor+/+14&%2334%3B+Display+/+4GB+Memory+-+Black/3672031.p?id=1218425883601&skuId=3672031

2. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Toshiba+-+Satellite+Laptop+/+Intel%26%23174%3B+Core%26%23153%3B+i3+Processor+/+15.6%26%2334%3B+Display+-+Black/3624263.p;jsessionid=2257DBF6A45DE1771F8C5E7EC0177B5D.bbolsp-app03-02?id=1218421871462&skuId=3624263

Basically, I just need this as a spare, "portable" laptop, that runs a Browser, and Microsoft Office smoothly. I realize those are extremely primitive requirements, but my last spare laptop was an HP TX2000, it had billions of problems, such as heating, freezing, blue-screens and takes over 5 min to boot even after a month of usage after a clean format.

I cant seem to find specific reviews for each of them, maybe because they're low end ?

The Lenovo has good design and battery life, the Toshiba has a numPad on its keyboard which is kind of a plus, while the Asus has the better processor.

Any advice ?

Get the Asus as it has a better processor (Corei3) Which I think is very decent for web browsing and gaming, the cooling in Asus laptops are known to be cool which means that , it will last long, the body and overall structure of the body is very heavy duty.
Lenovo is also a good brand but the one you posted has just too week processor power @1.6GHz , my 7 year old Toshiba L300 can run faster than that.
The Toshiba which you posted is a good laptop , but the body is very cheap (I have had my hands on it once) The design is just too simple and it's not like using a new nice laptop when you use it.
So bottom line , get Asus.

Thats what im thinking Avo, but it has a smaller screen, and no NumPad. But I think I can manage without those, only if the other two are really not worthy ...

You can buy an external num-pad at almost any computer store for less then 10$.
And smaller screen means sharper font (If the resolution is high of course) It also means less to carry and lighter to carry.
Good luck with your purchase.
