    @Nairn :)

    I took your advice, and got a used Lenovo Thinkpad W530.
    I7 Processor, 16 GB RAM, brand new 250GB SSD, 500 GB HDD.

    Price: 2800 DKK / 325 GBP / 430 USD

    Very happy with it. Faster than my friends Macbook Pro. Built like a tank. Only thing i hate is the gigantic power brick. The size of an actual brick.

    Tanks for the tip dude!! I owe you a pint :)

    Slightly tacky presentation:
