Laptops?

[Kerryclio]

I am looking into buying a laptop

I have got around £200 to spend would i realistically get a laptop for that money? :S (currently use my dads and he keeps moaning when i am on it )

Any help greatly appriciated

cant see you getting a decent laptop for that Kerry

you might pick up an OK ish second hand one for that though!?

put a wanted up on here people are bound to have old laptops laying around.

All you would want is a dual core and 2gb ram.

Do you think i could do a pc for that amount as my brother could build it? Didnt really want one as it would have to be in my bedroom and i dont really have that much room tbh

 

[The Boosh!]

dont get a desktop get a laptop but yeh you could scrape a poverty spec pc...

Id go for a secondhand laptop..

i got a macbook other week with a cable to the tv & a wireless mouse and keyboard... so i have a desktop and a laptop
win!

Would rather buy it outright as i have various loans and direct payments out of my account and got some extra money this month and want to spend it on something i need!

[James.f]

if its for Itunes, pictures, facebook etc then itl do the job fine

look in the larger supermarkets. I got a new one today from Sainsburys for under £300. The spec is better than PCworld/Currys were doing for £400.

You'll get a web-book for around £200-£250 if you dont want much hard disk space, but be prepared for a small screen and no cd drive

 

[Kerryclio]

Lol i dont want a piece of poo though as brother and dad will oversee my purchase

 

[Dink]

good find that dude!

not the best make and was a refurb but hasn't put a foot wrong yet so wasn't bad

 

[Dink]

Lol i dont want a piece of poo though as brother and dad will purchase it for me as i'm his little princess

Buy cheap and buy twice. your best putting up with your dad moaning whilst you get more funds...
