"Laptop/Notebook - Looking to buy one..."

I need to buy a laptop for Uni and, well, I don't know where to look.

I'd go with Dell as they were rated the best when I last checked but they are a bit pricey.

Does anybody have any ideas of any good RELIABLE retailers who sell good RELIABLE machines?

Anyone who says Time or Tiny gets a slap!

Thanks.

Even if you can't find that one in particular, they have some damn cheap stuff on that site.

I know someone who got a P4 2.8GHz, 1024mb RAM, 30GB HDD and GeForce4 Go graphics laptop for £899

It was on www.euorpc.co.uk I think.

www.dell.co.uk/pcformat may aid you in your attempt to save money, though of course you should really buy from SR *stops before incurring staffie wrath*

Does anyone know of the site that will allow me to get these before they reach SR, I've searched and I can't find it.

Plus is that any good above? Take into account that I can get it with no VAT. So use that price.

I seem to like it.

Oh, and how many USB ports does it have?

Yeah dude I was just pasting from IRC.

The same Iridium laptops can be bought elsewhere cheaper than SR, but I can't remember where at the moment :(, it will come back to me.

Mine is normally £900, specs on www.david99.co.uk/mypc.html, but no 3D chip unfortunately, plays Quake 3 brilliantly though :)

www.watford.co.uk might be a good place to look ?

IRC

I'd guess.

I'll have a look at those tomorrow. Thanks.

And uk.special.reserve.co.uk/q_GG9904_iridium_s865_p4_24.html

Is that any good?

Looks good.

Is it your comp that does that TBN?

I would hate to think you typed that in on every post.

[00:03:36] rob, mention that it's only £600

I have NEVER had my time PCs break down. Or have any problems.
