I have narrowed down my search for a new laptop for my uni bound daughter to 2 laptops of similar spec
this dell at £360

or this toshiba

which is going to be the most reliable? and sounds the best deal?

The Dell spec. is better than the toshiba.
Although at the same price you can get a desktop with an even better spec.:kisses: oh yeah yea yea0 -
The Dell:
Order it via Quidco for 4.5% back on the basic (pre VAT & Delivery) price.
Upgrade the battery for £11.75 - lasts longer when not on mains.
I would also get the XP Home backup media for £5.88
Don't get any of the other upgrades - or check here first!
If she wants Microsoft Office - get the student edition from Amazon £93

- or she may prefer Open Office - Free and MS compatible!
