flash Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 my first laptop was a dell 510m, which served me well up until the motherboard packed in, and it wasnt worth repairing it. so im on the look out for a new laptop. up to and around the £370 mark. needs to be capable of playing games, such as world of warcraft, counterstrike etc. good sized hard drive(80gb plus) decent processor. reliable make etc etc cheers flash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J@mes Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Dell usually have good specs at reasonable prices, and sometimes have offers on free upgrades/warranties and the like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Not much in the laptop game these days to be honest.. Simply buy the best that your budget will allow you to. What he said, and if you don't like Vista (which is what almost anything new will come with pre-installed) make sure the manufacturer will supply XP media for that model free of charge.

Guest Mr Pieman Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Advent are very good. I have used their laptops and desktops. However, if you get the chance, I would go for an Apple every time (and I don't mean the fruit!!) :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oly Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I expect the Toshiba Sat Pro that Shaggy has kindly offered should do the job more than adequately, but if not another vote for Acer's, otherwise known as Acres, here! Might not be the top of the range, but excellent value for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
