dont want to pay more than £300 ideally.

Just want something reliable, something that isnt sluggish, that I can link to my TV & has a good battery life.

Can anyone recommend something or give me an idea what i should or should not be looking for i would very much appreciate it.

    You may want to look at the Dell.co.uk website; found one there for £299. I'm a newbie, can't post links :cool:

    Check out the Samsung NC range. The NC10 is probably the best netbook of all. Should be well within budget too.

    Not wishing to be rude, but there is a whole thread on this forum specifically about netbooks,

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1206753&highlight=netbook

    Also try a forum search for netbook, plenty of threads just from the last few days.
    Move along, nothing to see.

    For what it's worth, I have the Samsung and it's great. My father has the Dell, and he's not happy with it. It's slower, the touch-pad is annoying and it can't be upgraded to Windows 7.
