Muff 245 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Anyone recommend any good laptops and where is the best place to buy them?

mac444 6 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 I would recommend a Macbook, not sure whether you want to switch to mac or not, but for me it was the best thing I ever done in terms of computers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-Maestro 11,078 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Acer and Toshiba where in the top 3 in Which? magazine. I'd go for a Acer they're cheap and a lot better than they used to be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1mgg 3,766 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 www.ebuyer.com is a good place to get laptops. Explain what you need a high performance one for as you could throw 40% of extra money on a machine that will make about a 5% difference Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz52 11,837 Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 I have a Philips laptop that i beat the shit out of when Rangers get beat, had it for over a year and it's been sent away for repair about 5 times. But in all fairness it's a decent runner, i think one of my memory cards are fried tho as i used to have 2gb of ram but now it's '0.99'GB. I'm thinking about buying a new desktop pc tho, prefer them to laptops Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff 245 Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 I saw this Gary when I was looking at sites for laptops. Now I don't know how good this Toshiba one is, but it has 4GB ram, and 250GB hard drive. Surely plenty if you are only browsing the web? Only £312. http://www.staples.co.uk/technology/pcs-an...ta-home-premium Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
