Decent laptop for Student Version?

Hi all,  I will be given the student version of SW when classes start in January. As such, my PC at home is not sufficient to run the program, so I am looking at a new laptop.

Does anyone have any suggestions?  I've looked pretty hard at this one:

I have read dozens of reviews, and it seems to be the best bang-for-buck.

Please share your opinions!

Thanks
