Hi, i am quite new to laptops but know a bit about desktops. I am simply getting a laptop for the convienience of the portability and size.

My dad has just built a desktop for £500. Its very nice as the spec is brilliant for the money - 1 gb of ram | 160gb of hard disk | Under 3.0 ghz.

I do know i wont get that type of spec for a laptop around £600. As far as i know i can get something like this --> http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos...32347/sr=1-5/ref=sr_1_3_5/202-9243713-7235826

I was just wondering if you could reccomend any other good laptops in my price range.

Your welcome..... But i guess that you are interested in a lot of gaming ?

If so it would be better to get this one...

http://laptops.tiny.com/computers/home_laptops/13393/61307/Tiny_PowerLite_CM3400_Pro

It has less Ram but you can upgrade this later when you have some more money...

But it has a serious gpu.. and memory ...

128MB ATi Mobility Radeon 9700 Pro (M11) Graphics


Where as the other one http://laptops.tiny.com/computers/home_laptops/14647/61307/Tiny_PowerLite_C780

Has intergrated graphics which suck and will not play the latest games well.....

Hope this helps i would choose the one with the larger and more powerful graphics card and buy some more Ram when i get some extra cash...

You can always upgrade ram but you will be stuck with your graphics.... Hope this helps ...... Loz
