Thanks for the advice. I have no intention of buying an AMD laptop. I
have had a quick Google for Dell refurbs. I suppose you mean their own
website? Anyway there are so many choices of so many different models,
I wouldn't know where to start. Still looking,

Duh, have no idea why I didn't just think to give you the link:

http://www.dell.co.uk/outlet/

Great deals on there, it really helps to keep checking back every now
and then over a few weeks to catch the particularly sweet offers. They
often have free P&P as well, which saves even more money.

Should probably point out that I am definitely not affiliated with Dell
in any way - wish I was though. They should be paying me commission with
the amount of gear I shift for them through recommendations...

Cheers

Thanks for that, will have a look. For comparison here is a quick example of one from pcspecialist.

17.3" screen. Intel dual core. 4 GB RAM. Built in Intel graphics card.
HD 500 GB. Bluetooth and wireless. 3 USB ports. No OS. Included webcam.
3 years warranty. Memory card reader.

This comes to Â371 inc VAT.

Is that reasonble?

Remember this is me looking for a secondary machine. My desktop will be the main one. I would set it up as a test bed for distros for example, and to be there if I, my wife or daughter have problems with any of the
'normal' machines.

Regards

Neil
