    I take it the main reason for wanting a new laptop is for the camcorder? If so does it have to be a laptop? there are some amazing prices on desktops about and you would get a far better, more upgradable and therefore longer lasting machine for less money.

    Just a thought

    Thanks for that, Yeah the main reason is to use with the camcorder, to stick the recordings onto dvd. I'd keep my i-mac for the net & main computer even if its getting on a bit & not as high tech as new pc's, but it does a job, i haven't got room for 2 pc's.
