Laptop for Collage

zero_01 · 24 Jul 2008 at 10:03

I will be heading back to collage in August and i am looking for a laptop,

Basicly it will need a fairly big hard drive 160GB or more, dont need it for gaming since i have a PC, really the only thing i will be using it for is typeing notes in collage, also possible for internet if i am away,

budget is about £500 but can go up to £650, the lower the better,

Thanks for your help

Also, consider a refurb option.
