LF thin and light laptop

I am currently searching for a thin and light laptop that I will be using it primarily for work and a bit of streaming. I need the ability to install .exe files so a Chromebook will not work. I am also looking for a touch screen and would prefer it to be priced at under $1200. Any advice would be amazing. I get a slight discount of some Lenovo (nice to stack 9% ebates) laptops through my work but today is my last day there.

Would it be better if I wait? I know back to school is coming up but my current laptop is constantly blue screening. I have another (T450) but I cracked the screen so I can only use it on a dock.
