Pavillion
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am looking for a light weight, 13 inch laptop for traveling. It does not have to be extremely powerful since I am primarily using it for social media, word processing, and power point. I was looking at the Envy, but most sites say it has been discontinued. So, I saw the Pavillion, which costs considerably less, however I have read that the Windows 10s can be a problem, especially for non-Microsoft apps. 
Can you provide some direction?

Normally the Envy machines are much better built (including their cases) therefore they are more expensive. Envy machines are still around. More info

I  can't see that is a problem. Do you know which ones are not compatible ?  You can use "for social media, word processing, and power point" and tons of other software.
