I'm basically after a cheap lappy for the campervan. The last one died as it hit the floor in a hard braking maneuver :(


All i need it a reasonable screen and the ability to store and play some .avi and vobs....

I've been looking 2nd hand and there dosn't seem to be any bargins going that you couldn't get new for :(

Does this kind of thing look ok for £260 quid?
