Thank you so much everyone for all your excellent help and advice
I decided in the end to build my own, I ordered the barebones (£130) an optical drive, hard drive & graphics card for £225. I have worked out that I will be able to afford the OS in December, but will see how well DH does tip wise when he comes home tonight and I might be able to get it sooner
Thank you sooo much again.
I have one little question about OS's though, when it says 32 bit & 64 bit, does it matter which one I purchase? Or can any system run either?:idea: Jan 09.

A 64bit system can run a 32bit OS but a 32bit system can't run a 64bit OS.The truth may be out there, but the lies are inside your head. Terry Pratchett

I do hope Littlewoods confirmed your cancellation OK before you ordered the barebones. Otherwise you're going to have an expensive week!No free lunch, and no free laptop0

I rang them yesterday to confirm the cancellation, they hadn't received anything so I asked them to cancel it and my balance is back to how it was on my account again:idea: Jan 09.

I think it supports 64 but would not swear on it http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=42770
someone who knows better than me will be along soon.
Might buy one myself soon.The truth may be out there, but the lies are inside your head. Terry Pratchett

the only thing I've ever done myself is Ram, so this is going to be a good learning curve for me
Maybe next time I'll do the whole thing myself instead of leaving the 'tricky' bits to the shops hehe
I'm getting rather excited, I haven't had a purchase solely for me in a Very long time!!!! (Although DH will be able to use it every now and then, if he can get me off it
hehe)
