I am not after the cheapest just something that will enable to use office and an email and a bit of online shopping

    I've got a Dell Studio, I love it... all I do is surf, type letters etc. Online shopping. Hasn't caused me any problems so far (touch wood). I have the 17" version, it cost about £500 ~ coz I wanted it in purple. If she wants to carry it around with her, it is quite heavy ~ you may want to look at the small screen. It was easy to set up and all the software is pre-loaded ready to go!
    What goes around comes around !! Simple but very true :rotfl:
