Looking to get a new laptop, mostly for work and web browsing, no gaming. Anyone recommend one please?

Have you got a budget?

Does it need to be Windows for work stuff?

I use Libre office. It is not 100% equivalent to Windows office but I'd say 99.5%, the apps export in windows doc formats....and, bonus, it is free.

Open Office is decent too, more or less the same functionality as Microsoft, but retro.
I'm looking at getting a Mac myself

Best decision you’ll ever make. You won’t ever go back.
