£350, he basically just uses it to browse the internet. I'm looking at the Nova Explora E16 for £320:

NNB-831
AMD TK42 Dual Core Processor
******** 2GB DDR2 PC 6400 800MHz
250Gb 2.5" 5400Rpm Hard Drive
8x SATA DVD Writer
ATI Radeon X1200 Mobile PCI Express Graphics
15.6" Wide XGA 1366 x 768 LED TFT

Can you get any better? He's got vouchers for a few places so if it's available at *competitor*Meteor*competitor* or *competitor*worst shop ever*competitor* then all the better. Thanks.
 
He may have vouchers at those places, but I bet the laptop still is more expensive than etailers.

Why don't you look at a netbook? Seems daft to have to carry a cd drive around (as built-in on a laptop) when 99% of the time you won't even have a disk in it.
 
Well, there are some good looking deals over there... care to point out specific examples of what you mean?

I've suggested it, he complains that the screen is to small and most of the time he won't be carrying it around, it'l just be sitting on his desk. Hence why i'm looking at a few desktops as well.

That said i might just get him to get his 'old' laptop fixed (some 3GHz Dual Core in there i think, overheated but should be an easy enough job).
