Help please....

[charl]

Looking for a lappy for the OH for crimbo.....

Dont really want to spend more than £500 tbh and was wandering if any one on here could help me out?

I dont know much about laptops and would like to get a half decent one for him.

I have no worries about him jumping on and seeing the thread as he is with the lil one

I have had a look on PC world, Curry's etc but really dont understand what each does and whether its value for money etc....

Help will be much appreciated

Thanks

Didn't you get him a Motor X bike already?

bloody hell a lappy as well as a bike!!!

Dell do a half decent one at PC world, mines the notebook version which costs about £265 but has a small screen which is crap - dont bother with small laptops seriously. The larger version with decent spec (and coloured shells) is about £379 i think.

I've got a corker for sale, £400 with Windows 7 Ultimate and Office 2007 Professional Plus. I'm an IT geek, was the best I could get for a grand only 6 months ago and I just don't use it now work give me free ones, so it's going fairly cheap as it's for a good cause!

Pretty picture, can get proper ones if it's of interest. Will come fully built, with restore media and ready to go with whoever's name on it all you like.
