    LOOKING FOR A CHEAP LAPTOP, CAN ANYONE HELP PLZ :cool:
    I have been looking for a while but stocks seem to go very fast so you have to be quick but I dont want one that is going to be expensive to upgrade as what happened to tiny i want one you can get the parts from anywhere as i think with dell you have to get the parts off them if you want to upgrade is this true

    Laptops, due to their very nature aren't that upgradeable, unlike desktops. Getting replacement parts is a different story. If you are expecting to need an upgrade, and it has to be a laptop, then my advice would be to buy the best spec you can to get the best longevity out of it and then sell it on and buy a new one. if you ask on the techie board some of the excellent guys and gals on there can advise. I went for a high spec laptop from Dell outlet, after weeks of watching for the right deal and then rejecting one straight away. It helps if you can monitor the outlet at odd times.

    Alternatively, if you can manage with a desktop you will get a lot more for your money.

    Hope this helps.
