Upgrade from a 2010 Mac Book HELP

[OricaBraynerd]

Hi I am looking for a new laptop. I will be using it to play World of Warcraft, store music/photos, and do school work. Coming from an at present really crappy laptop experience (keep running out of memory, laptop freezes up, lags when 2+ applications are open, shuts down randomly), I'm sure anything would be better than my mac. I'm a little bit anxious about switching to a windows computer because all I've ever known was mac and I really love the design but I'm sick and tired of iOS and I don't want to have to run parallel or bootcamp. The laptop market is huge and there's so many different laptops to choose from so I need your help. Also, I am not a computer person so when I read specs I usually get lost. Pretty much, as long as the laptop I end up buying is noticeably better than the one I have now, I will be happy.

What I'm looking for:
-Laptop
-Must have 750GB or 1TB of memory
-Must have an SD Reader
-Must have backlit keyboard
-Play WoW on Med+ without lag (would be nice to run it on high/ultra)
-13-15" (it might be okay if it's bigger, I'm just a little wary of going from using a 13" laptop for 4 years then switching to a 17", also I bring my laptop to school so it might be a pain in the ass using my laptop while trying to take notes on my desk)
-Good track pad
-Anti glare would be nice
-Compact design
-Under or around the price range of a mac product (under $1700)
-Not required but it would be nice for the laptop to have an optical drive/blu ray reader



Some laptops I found while looking around online have been:
Toshiba Chromebook 2 1080p (I think if I don't like how iOS is not compatible with most applications, the problem will be worse with chrome.)
Lenovo Ideapad Y510p
Msi gs70 (I'm a little anxious about going from a compact 13" laptop to a 17" laptop and the price is a little steep) - also I figured if I'm coming from a sub-par laptop experience, I probably don't need to upgrade to such a high-end laptop when I could be happy with cheaper laptop.
Msi ge60

Any comments on my current laptop choices or any recommendations would be GRATEFULLY WELCOMED <3 Thank you all

Also, I am from Hawaii so if I could get free shipping or be able to pick it up in store that would be a MAJOR plus

Take Monday off, tear through the internet (cyber monday lulz) to find something decent at a good price. Can't really give much advice on price since everything is pear shaped atm.

EDIT: http://www.pcgamer.com/the-best-gaming-laptops-1/ I'd look at some of the models they checked here. Might be able to get a better deal now.

Hehe I was thinking of buying it on Monday... :-) from your link I found that the msi GE60 fits me best but if anyone knows a smaller/cheaper model I could consider without downgrading too much let me know
