Need suggestions for a new laptop

My current one is terrible and about 8 years old so Im looking to buy a new one. I would like to keep it around $600 or below. This will be used for the internet, office, etc. I dont need anything fancy for gaming. Just something new that will last me a few years.
I dont want a Mac.
This was suggested to me a few weeks ago. Not much of a review from websites but Amazon reviews seem alright.
Asus X550LA-DH51 15.6" Notebook - Intel Core i5 i5-4200U 1.60 GHz - Silver Gray
This goes for $600 on Amazon
Any other recommendations?

Refurbished Macbook Air laptops are even better.

Have an Asus and it is great. No complaints.

It doesnt really matter to me. I would like it to fit in a bookbag but not be small.
My current is 15 inches and is a good size for me
This is it Ughh

I've heard good things on Asus. Under the radar brand that is good for the $

I personally wouldn't touch a refurb.
Windows 8 is the way to go now though.

Never played around with windows 8. Only 7.
Refurbished is cool to buy? Some of the reviews are iffy.
This is much better than the one I linked in the OP?
