Cheap new laptop
 
As above my mum needs a new lap top, now she only needs it for surfing the tinerterweb, watching youtube, msn etc so nothing fancy or expensive(sub £300 if poss :D ) and have windows installed it doesn't need to be massive spece'd processor or hard drive(100gig or less) . She would like new, so she has peace of mind etc. The cheapest one Ive come across is this from staples.

Cheers :)

The one you looked at in staples looks the best price

If thats all she needs it for then I would probably go with a netbook? My mum just bought one for exactly the same reasons and she loves it.

Cheers Ian :thumb: like you said the staples one does look to be the best value one

mystery machine I'm not entirely sure what a note book is :lol1: though she is partial to saving and playing music so a hard drive is a necesity which is what my thinking is with regards to a notebook not having one? And she does require wi-fi

Netbooks come with wifi and hard drives built in.

Netbooks

the only real difference is the size, oh and they are usually cheaper :)


Just realized they don't have optical drives though, but you could get an external one if it was required, probably still work out cheaper ;)
