I am thinking of getting a laptop and seen this one (recommended from my other thread) http://www.currys.co.uk/martprd/sto...=SimpleSearchProducts&page=Product&sku=557073 on pc-world/currys website but they have none in stock and all the others for the same price are not as good, so had a look on dells site and started to build one (do not know fully what I am adding LOL)
anyway this is what I have speced but a few questions
