Question Grandmother want a...

...laptop

Apparently she has people she wants to email and the like. Bloody hell, what is the world coming to when your (84 year old - ****, I hope she doesn't read Scoobynet ) grandmother is surfing the web and sending emails?!

Can anyone suggest a place where I could get one that'll do what she wants (email and at a push surfing) for around £300? I think frankly, any more than that would be a waste.

Cheers!
