looking to get a laptop pretty soon but finding it hard as i don't know too much about them. I have searched around and bascially im lookinf for one no more then £300 second hand that will be able to run photoshop and programs similiar fairly decent.
Now although i don't know if this is a good idea, im thinking of buying one second hand that has a decent looking case and decent unupgradable hardware (which are what??) and then upgrading myself in my own time.
What im hoping is if anyone can post nice laptop cases with good unupgradable hardware such as i think the CPU, mobo etc.
Also while im here can someone please exaplin roughly to me about laptops, whats good parts, the type of ram, whats upgradable, good CPU, i dont understnad the differnce between p3/p4 centrino?, how much RAM costs for laptops, HD, what are good HD speeds. All these things and more im lost with and don't what if its a bargain or just plain rubbish
The laptop wouldn't need a cd drive, just somewhere to connect an network cable to.
