I have £500 to spend, either on a laptop or a desktop.

I dont really need a powerfull pc, something that I can do work on, surf the net, music etc...

I'd like to have wireless networking on it too.

What do you think i should get?

I don't know if you can get a decent computer with that amount of money.

But, if you have already got a desktop, get a laptop (if it's possible).
If I were you, I might upgrade my desktop.

best bet is too look around at local computer fairs


im not sure if ur back from your trip

but im sure there are some once a month near Wrexham..

but, evesham computers are currently doing a clearence on some pcs/laptops

Laptop around £500

You can get a Dell Inspiron 1100 for £529, but if at all possible, I'd suggest spending another £200 to get a MUCH better PC over-all.

are you from near wrexham?

i guess there are the fairs at northgate arena, however i'd rather get it with a guarentee just to be safe

yeh but as they removed all there call centres from india to england, things have got alot worse...

ill see if i can find the article from somewhere
think it was on neowin

that could work to my advantage, since loads of call centres are in gurgaon (which is a really fast developing part of india) they mostly speak Hindi

I might get a Dell, or an IBM, or ill go to my local pc shop and see wot they've got.

Good PC's for a reasonable price and top quality support.  On a side note you will find more bang for your £ from AMD based systems.
