[QUOTE="ladycrofter, post: 4183534, member: 616"] Just wondering if anyone has bought a new laptop recently? I'm looking at buying something with a large screen (I think that means 17 in?). Currently using an HP that came with Win7 so pretty old, upgraded to Win10 though. Just about ready to throw it in the pond, bad enough here with our slow internet. Thought I could get something for around £2-300 but I see that to get a "serious" work laptop, I need to spend more :cry:. I don't game (unless they bring in a Win10 version of Quake:rolleyes: showing my age now) but I do need capability to to work on websites, so lots of programs open, graphics work, etc. Battery life not a huge issue. Maybe £500 max? I've been looking on the Argos, Tesco and Amazon sites, but there are so many models of what look like almost the same thing, it is a bit confusing. Quad core prices seem to be all over the place, some cheaper than dual??? Any advice and suggestions appreciated before I press a "BUY" button. [/QUOTE]
