Just checked the Dell model.

The ebuyer one is better.

They may have even more in the sub £450 region. The one I saw was the top advert on the laptop page.

Generally, AMD processors are cheaper than the Intel brand for the same processing power.

You can read reviews on ebuyer from other customers. Looks ok, 5 stars (out of 5) average after 43 reviews.

Also, "Great Cheap Laptop Hunt" thread is at the top of this board.

if you're only using it to surf the net and type up coursework then you won't need anything too special so the sub £450 ones should do you fine.
