Davehutch-hutchs 0 Posted October 21, 2010 Right then boys & girls my birthday is coming up soon ,and the wife is going to buy me a laptop After i punched the screen and my old one in a temper a while back Being as i spend so much time on here now it would be nice to sit down stairs instead of up in the study, So my question is which one would you go for lets say for about £300 - £400 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Davehutch-hutchs 0 Posted October 21, 2010 what sort of money Dave ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yankeedoodle 0 Posted October 21, 2010 i agree, the satellites are well rated machines. theres tonnes of different models of satellites, but you will find one that does what you want for £350 I say also check out the acer aspire. again, theres lots of different versions with different specs, but they're well rated too and come in at a similar price to the satellites. If/when I get one ill be getting one of these too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firehawk 0 Posted October 21, 2010 i have a compaq/hp laptop. haven't had any probs with it yet. speakers are good, screen is good and it withstands alot of abuse. i got it cheaper because they didn't have any in stock so sold me the demonstrator. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted October 21, 2010 I have a 17" HP Compaq 6820's Its been brilliant so far and has a numeric keyboard on the right, just like a desk top pc. I think I payed around £450, three yrs ago. Its the one the college I work for IT department uses, so I thought I'd get the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest Posted October 21, 2010 If you're saying you have another computer for other things you could just get a netbook. Those smaller ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
