£300 is plenty if you're only using it for internets browsing.

Also, getting a PC/laptop on finance is rarely a good idea, because by the time you've paid it off it'll be quite outdated.

I agree with GaRy. Dont bother with finance, after a week/month of owning/paying for it it will be outdated.

£300 is more than enough if youre just web browsing and the odd bit of listening to music. Anything hardcore you need a lot more power and money! I got myself a top end Acer Aspire 6930G laptop for £300. From a friend who works in a mobile phone shop. Got me it at a reduced price (£350 reduced!!!!!)

Bump. Need another laptop.

Whats the best thing on here (http://www.dell.co.uk/home/laptops?~ck=mn) sub £350? Would get a netbook thing but i dont think i could live with a 10" screen. Any operating systems i should avoid? Want anti-virus shiz included too. Cheers nerds :D
