    yeah but the total is £338.91 or something, so the laptop is actually only worth £279, the delivery isn't free it is just included in the price.
    Student Loan - £2200, Cleared June 2008 :D

    Now saving for my future!!

    Looks good to me :D 339 with 512mb memory and dont forget quidco to get a tidy cashback ;)

    Id still thoroughly recommend the screen upgrade. and if you want to use it proper wireless for decent time get the extended battery.

    I only get it with 256mb RAM. Am I doing it wrong?

    looks like it was a very short offer lol. I clicked thru it a minute ago and it had 512mb selected, now its gone back to 256 :S very odd!

    Yes kingkano isn't going mad... this morning (around 9:30am) it wasn't showing with a price at all for the most basic Inspiron 1300 when you clicked through and got to the configuration page it did indeed have 512Mb memory for £339 all in. But they have fixed the 'errors' now.
