Buying a laptop for a 16th birthday

[Ark94]

Hey everyone. So my parents are going to get me a laptop for my 16th and i am really not sure what i should be aiming for. I have a lot of experience using computers, me and my bro built his computer and stuff like that, but that was a while ago.

Now i am looking to get a laptop.
I want in the laptop something that is fast, not a slow processor (i hear i3 or the new processors are good), reliable that won't fucking breakdown, and has good graphics. I may use it for a little bit of gaming, not like anything that requires a lot of spec, just some gaming.
Price range has to be from 500-700 and a trustable company. Toshiba i hear, my cousin also has one, are very reliable and build very well, as opposed to say Acer. Also good battery life, and good graphics but within the price range.

Uhh, i am more or less looking into Toshiba (or w/e suggested), unless people can advise otherwise. I live in Canada so it would be helpful if you could provide links to futureshop or bestbuy etc.

I guess i will start off with this, I am still looking but maybe an idea.

However the graphics don't seem to good. I will be using it for typing things for school also, and would like a good display.

Any suggestions?

How much money do you want to spend?

That doesn't have a dedicated video card.

I am looking to spend maximum $700. So like it could be 649 or w/e. but before taxes under 700.

I want the best i can get.

I realize the Toshiba doesn't have a video card, which is why i posted it i didn't know that at first =(

Not sure about that one, Still looking around. Best i can get, good speed, good graphics, good battery life (or decent w/e)

Just browsing around on bestbuy's website. I found 2 laptops that might seem to be pretty good. Has a video card, good RAM, and outputs in it.

Check them out, any downs to these?

Basically here is what i am looking to use it for. School mainly, and watching videos or movies on it.

I also MAY, not sure yet i may because my buddies want me to is play WoW. I would just like something that is good on full settings for WoW, and maybe Sims 2.

Thats about it.

Here are 2 that people have been saying are good.
However the first one is web only so im not sure if i can get it. Any ideas on the BEST bang for the buck under 700CAN.
