A couple of laptop questions please (1 Viewer)

Looking to replace my old (aged even) laptop and have seen some offers at Curries.
I am now retired
I dont do games
I use it for internet, emails, photography........nothing heavy.
I am a total technophobe (spelling ) so excuse my ignorance here.
Some things I know I want are..........
able to burn onto discs/cds
card reader for photos
minimum 4 GB memory & 1 TB hard drive (only because they seem to be standard now ???
So....................
a) are there any obvious things I have missed that are useful/necessary
b) does this one fit my needs (it doesn't seem to mention cd burner)

Many thanks

Seems good for the money. If you look in the specifications it does say "Optical disc drive DVD/RW" which means a CD/DVD burner.

Lenovo laptops do come with lots of "free software" that is of little use and just takes up room, but it all can be uninstalled!

The one thing to check with card readers as well is that your camera and laptop take the same memory cards. SD cards are the standard now (and I'd wager your camera uses them) but some older or pro cameras use CF cards which a lot of laptops can't handle.

That Lenovo looks more than adequate for what you'd want to use it for!

CF card readers which plug into a USB socket are relatively inexpensive as are multi-format readers, so if the laptop meets your requirements in other respects I wouldn't worry.
