    Looking for a laptop to run FL studio, trying to stay under $700. I've have been doing some research but there is are so many different versions of processors I'm getting overwhelmed.

    Would an i5-4200m, 8gb ram, 1 TB HD, windows 7 be ok for this? Should I stay away from the processors with U at the end? Dual core or go ahead and get an i7 quad?

    The music production is just a hobby and laptop would be used for FL and Internet. I only have a little knowledge of computers and I have never bought a laptop. I just want something that is mid ranged and will get good use out of it, don't want top of the line.

    Forgot to mention this

    Soundcard with DirectSound drivers. ASIO/ASIO2 compatible required for audio recording (FL Studio installs with generic ASIO4ALL drivers)

    All the laptops I have looked at do not mention anything about this, how can tell if it has this?

    I have been looking at dell, lenovo, acer, and asus. HP have some in my price range but I always heard to stay away from HP not sure if that still holds. Thanks.
