Budget 41-50k Need a laptop for computer engineer

[gunnerwholelife]

It's funny how even after being a computer engineer ,I need suggestions to get a decent laptop

Ok my budget is 40k-60k - cheaper the better
Getting one from US via my uncle.

What I need ?
14''-15'' screen
i5 5th generation or lower gen will also do if it suffices my below needs and is considerably cheaper.U or M variant is again as per my requirements.You suggest which one to get.
8gb RAM
256gb SSD
Intel graphics or a any decent GPU will be sufficient I guess - will be playing CS:GO,DOTA 2,FIFA 15 and some light editing only.

Laptop must be -
Light !! I will be travelling a lot and don't want those 6 lbs heavy duty bad ass laptops.Something as light as say Macbook if there is anything
Long battery - 6 hrs +
Excellent keyboard - Will be programming a lot in Java,Python,etc
Display - I have no clue here.I guess the best display in my budget.

Suggest something in 800-1000$

I was thinking of getting a Thinkpad but I don't know which one

Thanks a lot

Ask to get the most high end Thinkpad with HDD that he can get in your budget. Ensure it has a mSATA slot - mostly it will have one.

For more details, ask @sunny27 the only guy who I know has one.

The Thinkpad T430/T440 will be good. Apart from the X series Thinkpad, the T/L/W series use standard 9mm (height) harddrives. Msata support is there for the newer models.
