Hey guys,

Just looking for some help picking a laptop. It's mainly for web browsing, watching films and playing the odd oldish game. I've found a couple that seem decent and was just wondering what you guys think is the best value / good enough for the job etc.

Dell Inspiron 15R

# Optical Drive: DVDRW
£449
-----------------------------
Toshiba Satellite C660-174

# Processor: Intel Core i3-370M (2.4GHz, 1066MHz, 3MB)
# Memory: 3GB DDR3 1066MHz

So which of these do you think would be best or do you guys know of anything better out at the moment in that kind of price range? Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,
 
Dont buy a Toshiba the thermal management sucks and they dont seem to care about such issues. Upon researching an issue with a Toshiba I just got 2nd hand I found a lot of people none too happy with a lot of the models.

Dont bother with an AMD Turion either. If the Dell has decent graphics then go with that.

IMHO.
