My Nan has decided that she wants to buy a laptop so i offered to get one sorted out for her INCLUDING a wireless router so she can sit down anywhere in the house and use the Laptop.

She'll only be using the laptop for literally browsing the internet so no high spec laptops needed, however I dont want a really slow one for her. She wants to spend no more than £500.

Also are there any wireless routers you could recommend as well as the laptop.

Comments appreciated.

Thanks :)
 
You could get a Dell Vostro 1000 with these specs for £410:

AMD Turion 64 X2 TL60
Vista Business /XP Pro
15.4" Widescreen WXGA
2048MB RAM
120GB HDD
ATI Radeon Xpress 1150
8X DVD+/-RW

Should be plenty fast enough for Vista and anything else she uses. Leaves you £90 to get a decent wireless router like a Netgear DG834GT.
 
Would you recommend going for the Dell Vostro series then?

for £428 i can get;

AMD® Turion 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL6
Genuine Windows Vista® Business - English
15.4" Wide Screen WXGA (1280 x 800) Display
2048 MB 667MHz Dual-Channel DDR2 SDRAM (2x 1024 MB)
120GB (5400rpm) SATA Hard Drive
ATI Radeon® Xpress 1150 HyperMemory (integrated)Would you recommend going for the Dell Vostro series then?
