I wanna: Cheap Laptop

Hi as you can tell from the title I want a cheap laptop so i was just wondering whether anyone can recommend where to get a cheap laptop or post some vouchers for stores that sell laptops, e.g Pc World. I would very much appreciate this. I am a student and cant really afford the best laptops out there.

    Hi, If your not in a rush, keep an eye open for Acer laptops at Tesco Extra stores around the contry. They had a nice model 3613 a few weeks ago priced at around £380.00.

    256Mb of Ram, DVD writer 60Gb HD.

    I suggest getting a RAM upgrade once purchased

    Have you had a read through the last few pages of the Cheapest Laptop Hunt on the Techie Board?

    fyi I bought an Acer 3613wlmi from comet for my parents. The advertised price is £450 but if you get yourself a Virgin credit card you are able to buy Comet voucghers at a 13% discount in their members shop so it only cost £390 - and the comet model comes with 512mb of Ram - but a slightly smaller Hard Drive.
