Another 'would you buy this laptop' thread!

Sorry but I don't know any 'experts' to ask about this. I have an absolute maximum of £400 to buy a laptop. It will not be used for high-spec games just for wireless internet, the odd bit of typing etc. I've been scouring the internet today and have found this. Is it any good and if anyone has any other recommendations I would be grateful!

Heh someone else asked me about that too - it looks like a very good deal to me
Go for it0 -
personally i didnt like the casing thought it wasnt robust enough but the spec is good. Have you gone and looked at it in the flesh?:hello:"Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing it doesn't go in a fruit salad

It mentions screen size, but not resolution, and also has no apps included.0

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately the Comet laptop is not in stock in our local Comet so unless I can find it somewhere else I won't be able to inspect the build before buying.
I've now found this one: http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/store/pcw_page.jsp?BV_SessionID=@@@@1037501930.1262340099@@@@&BV_EngineID=ccdiadejfgehlejcflgceggdhhmdfol.0&page=Product&fm=null&sm=null&tm=null&sku=656598&category_oid=-36730 which although a smaller hard drive is an HP. I've always been a fan of HP desktops. My current HP desktop is 6 years old and still going strong! I might take a trip to PC World - just to look you understand - and then see if I can find this in a better store!0 -
If your just a basic user then both laptops will do you a turn.0
