Jammy007 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Hi guys, In need of a bit of advice. Looking for a laptop for my dad, it doesn't have to blow you away as this is the first time he'll have even used a computer. So I have been offered the following refurb: 1.5Ghz Pentium Mobile CPU 512MB Ram 40 Gig HDD DVD/CD-RW XP Pro Licence 14" Screen £175 with a 3 month warranty (I just realised how much I hate the sound of "3 month warranty"). It also costs an additional £18 for a 12 month warranty. So do any of you's think this is a reasonable deal or is there any better offers out there. Was really only wanting to pay about £150-£200 max as its just for something to potter about with and then I can look at buying a better spec laptop in the future for him.

3FIDDYZ Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Easy... Buy DELL! I think there may be some refurbs or cheaper models in the spec you need. Also... 512 on XP is a bit low, but memory is cheap, go for at least 1gb and 2 if you can.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
