Hi Janice,
My office laptop crashed last week. IT saved my important files, but I need a replacement quickly. I am not very confident about technology, and I visit client sites twice a week, so I want the lightest model on the shortlist.
It costs 2., and our manager has already approved that price for everyone on our team. It is not the fastest laptop, but I mostly write reports and emails. Like the Onyx, it comes with 3., and I checked that twice. The screen is small, but that is fine. Its battery lasts up to 4., so I can work a whole day at a client site without a charger. That was my biggest worry. Best of all, according to the note under the list, this laptop also qualifies for 5..
You know much more about laptops than I do. Could you look over my choice before I send the order on Thursday?
Thanks,
Paul

Using the drop-down menu (▾), choose the best option.
Paul is mainly writing to 6.
Choosing the Onyx instead would give Paul 7.
If Janice agrees, Paul will probably 8.
