Replacement for my Acer 6930G

[N$X]

I some how managed to break my laptop above. cannot repair it under warranty, as it was my own fault and not covered under my contents insurance.

The spec on it was massive for £440.00, back in January 2010.

Memory: 3GB

HD Capacity: 250GB 5400rpm Hard Disk Drive
Display: 16" HD Acer CineCrystal LCD
Optical Drive: DVD±RW (±R DL) / BD-ROM
Networking: Ethernet LAN / 802.11a/b/g/Draft-N Wireless / Bluetooth 2.0 +EDR

Couldn't find anything with a similar spec and my original price.

I have been searching for days. Can anyone suggest something for my price range?

Thank you.

can it not be fixed? Wouldn't advise you to throw away a 5month old laptop unless it really was needed

it wasn't fixable, so i opted for a lower spec laptop without the bluetooth/bluray and finger solution.
