Hi I'm wondering if anyone could give me some advice.

I want to buy a new laptop, I travell a fair bit and want to do some work but more importantly game while on the train etc.

I have a budget of £800.00. I want to be able to play games on it so want GFX memory stand alone.

Essentially I'm just enquiring if anyone has bought one recently fot this price and/or knows of anywhere good or reliable?

Thanks in advance

Ian
 
Based on what you said, you seem to need something with a relatively long battery life, something that's not too heavy, yet something that has a good graphics card.

It's going to be a little difficult to get something like that below £800. If you wait for some deals and look for a coupon, you should be able to get the 5150 from here, which has a Pentium 4-M and a 32/64MB GeForceFX Go5200 GPU. I know it was running for 799 a few days ago, and Dell's deals keep coming back.
I'd say if you can bump up your budget a bit, the 8600c is a much better buy, mainly because of the Pentium-M processor. Again, look for coupons...they make quite a difference (you can get upto 20% off sometimes).
 
Got some nice new laptops at work from Dell, although I think they can be a bit expensive.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
