You obviously have internet as you're on here, so do tell, why are you going to PC world? They are god awful! Please, Scan, Dabs or Ebuyer

To much choice tbh it's a mine field

Pc world aren't that bad if you just want a laptop.

So long as you are happy to say no when they push anti virus/insurance/etc on you

hmmm there are a lot to choose from between £450 and £500, but i'd probably go for one of these two:

I said no to their antivirus as its poo, the insurance is ok as i paid £8 per month and so far ive not had to pay for a new charger which would have cost me £70 for a new one, new remote which was £23 Oh and a new laptop 3 weeks after i got it as it just would not turn on at all and that would have been another £900.
For the sake of £8 per month.

you wouldn't have had to pay £900 quid for a laptop after 3 weeks because that's what you get a warranty for :rasp:

I would go for the dell 5164, I bought a Sony vaio with the exact same spec for 100 more just because I liked the keyboard more and it was white, wish i'd gone for the dell system now.
