Great Value 17" Laptop Deal

Restricted

Sorry, more questions!... Can anyone who has bought this tell me what preloaded software (if any) this comes with? Also, is the graphics chip capable of running games or is it more suited to business uses?

Thanks for your help.

I just bought a "refurbished" Toshiba 17" laptop, 2 gbs of ram, large hard drive, wifi, webcam, for £299 delivered from PC World.Came with Vista Home Premium. Works fine & has a great reliability record according to WHICH? magazine.

windows vista home premium and microsoft works are the main 2 programs. a good tip is to buy microsoft office student edition if you want all the programs in microsoft office ie excel/word/powerpoint etc. i have seen ms office student for around £45 and it can be installed on 3 machines.

i think this is the industry generic standard to get ms works, and office is an extra.

dont really know about the graphics chip, but i can watch bbciplayer in very good quality, and the graphics card i am running is nvidia geforce go6100.

I have gone for this for little miss divadee for xmas. Have been looking at the dell deals, but nothing as good as this.

Nanna and Grandad divadee are going to buy the office software for xmas, so that is good as well. we will get office from www.softwareforstudents.co.uk they have great prices on there.

thanks again op, you will have made an 11 year old a very very happy one this christmas.

I wouldn't worry about it too much as I ordered one on Saturday and I'm not getting it.

They put throught the VISA payment in a really strange way which resulted in the payment being rejected (lady from VISA explained) and I didn't get an email till 6.15 this morning and then lo and behold there was a "stock problem".

Well done to anyone who did manage to get it just have to explain to DD that her laptop is no longer coming. :mad:
