New laptop for college and programming

Hello everyone,

I'm Nicholas, Computing engineering student in need for strong and reliable laptop. My old laptop stopped working and it is necessity to have one because of course requirements. Any laptops of required capability to run particular software used on courses lie around 1000-1500€ range. I also use it to earn some money to supplement my income, which barely make ends meet; there's no room for extras or buying a new device on my own. This is why I request your assistance; any contribution, no matter how small, will help me reach my goal.
