This any good for £300?

RAM: 4.0g
HDD: 250GB Sata
OPTICAL: DVDRW +/-

6 Cell Battery
3 USB 2-0

Card Reader 7-1

However, I have no idea what 'Whitebox' means? Further spec details mention that an operating system is included but doesn't mention which one. Am I right to assume it may be Linux?
 
T300? :s

Whitebox means it's custom built, make sure you get a good warranty and that the business will last more than 5 minutes

If it's not a business don't buy it...
 
The T300 processor no good then?

I think he means there is no such thing as a T300. Is it a T6300 for example? Judging by the speed I think it probably is.

You also need to find out the speed of the hard drive. The memory seems ok in size. The graphics won't be great for games (I don't think Intel make any good gaming GPU chipsets). The CPU is ok but not stellar. What resolution is the screen?

How much is it? Whether it is a good deal will depend on exactly what you want to use it for and how much it is.
