Im a high school student who needs a basic laptop…what do I get?

Okay so I am in high school and this year my school allowed laptops. I want to go electronic next year my senior year and bring my laptop everyday for school assignments but I also want to use it as my own computer so I can stop using the family one.

Right now I would be happy spending less money considering its harder to make as a teen.

I use the Internet Microsoft programs iTunes Skype and thats basically it.

MY REQUIREMENTS

I have over 350 GB of music videos documents etc and my library is always growing so I would prefer either a cheap laptop with 250 GB and then I could buy a cheap external hard drive to keep at home OR I could get an expensive computer with at least 500 GB hard drive.

1314 screen

I want the keyboard to be nice and Id prefer

something that burns CDs and DVDs

has at least 5 hours of battery life per charge I need it to last for the school day

Windows 7 and good wifi connectivity seeing as thats how I will get Internet at home and in school.

Do you have any good ideas for less expensive laptops that have those requirements? Also whats a good memory and processor for me? About how many years would this laptop last before I have to get a new one?
