Laptop for student to replace Chromebook

Feb 2, 2015 9:54AM PST

I currently have a Chromebook but am looking for a new laptop to use for school. I wasn't planning on purchasing a new laptop however, I am taking a class which requires the use of Java. I am looking for a laptop similar to the Chromebook- cheap, light, and fast. I need it to run Java and Flash but other than that I will only use it to browse the internet.

Any suggestions?
