My PC's reaching its 4th birthday rather soon and im reaching my 18th so I thought id treat myself to a laptop.
Been searching on the web + in a few shops around my area.
A couple that caught my eye were..
HP Pavilion 3000+
-AMD Sempron 3000+ Mobile processor
-512MB DDR RAM
-ATi Radeon IGP 128MB graphics
-DVD-RW
-40GB hard drive
-Wi-Fi wireless
£599
OR...
Tiny Powerlite CM3400 PRO
Pretty much the same but with..
-Intel Celeron M processor 340
-128MB Ati Mobility Radeon 9700 Pro (M11) Graphics
at £799
My budget is £800.
Are Sempron processors any good? and how much difference are there between the two Radeon graphics cards?
Im no expert but I know the basics so any opinions or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Pent. 2.
That's 350MHZ baby. Eg. 10 minutes for a heavy page to load on Champ Man.

Arent semprons a replacement for the duron or something? A.K.A Avoid. Same goes for a celeron.
Hmm.. although im home most of the time in the evenings.. im often at either my dads (every other weekend) or my nans stuck for things to do. Got a DS and an MP3 but the thought of being able to play a few PC games whilst im at these different houses does sound quite appealing.
I wouldnt be playing really high end quality games like Half life or Doom. Infact I dont see myself as a big PC gamer. I would be getting Rollercoaster tycoon 3 though. I am a fan.

£800 for a notebook? Hmmmmm.
Do you really need one? £800 will get you a low-end notebook whereas £800 could get you a pretty good PC.
