Hi Guy's,
I am after a laptop that will last a good few years and do most things like excel, power point, gaming (medium) although who knows I might get more into it, general web stuff, so all in all nothing too heavy but I dont want to part with my dosh and be dissapointed due to bad selection of componants so below is what I have come up with.
I originally only wanted to spend £800 max but I think it could be a little unrealistic although i'm sure you will put me right if i'm wrong
Has anyone got either of the below and if so I'd like to hear any pro's n con's.
