Im after a laptop, price around £550.00, purely just for internet browsing etc, i just wonderd if any one had any advice on the best model for the price??
 
Look for one with 512MB of RAM, Centrino, Sempron or Turion. IGP gfx. £550 can you get a good specced laptop, probably too good if it's just for browsing. £400

ie this one

Acer 3004 range £430
AMD Sempron 3100+ - As powerful as P4 2.8GHz, 15% faster than 3000+
512MB DDR SDRAM
60GB Hard Drive

Looks great value, tempted myself :) that dual core looks nice, don't think need it though...the bottleneck is usually the HD, don't need the power of dual core for a laptop.
