Laptop Advice
I am stuck at home with my foot in a cast and cannot get to my office and main PC. Currently using an ASUS laptop at home but it's so slow I want to get something a bit faster. No gaming but music and general surfing and usual office stuff Word/Excel etc.
So suggestions please. Large screen, decent build quality Windows 7 already installed. DVD writer and webcam. Say max £450 or less preferred. None of this touch screen stuff.
Where is a good place to buy on-line and can I still buy Word '03?
Many thanks, David

Just remind me what I type in RUN to find backround programmes. I know Skype, AVG are included.
Also what processer to go for? And memory 4 or 8 RAM minimum?
