Dual core for WP and browsing?

HP NX6110 series. Celeron M jobby, very well built. I have one myself

let me rephrase:

Cheap means under £400

For my mother you see... all she wants is to be able to do her shopping on asda.co.uk in the kitchen so she can go through the cupboards as she does it

my brothers got a little palmtop but she's only just mastered using a standard windows interface

cheers for your suggestions though.
