I know it's a bit early but I might get it if it's a bargain.
He want's it for browsing the net and playing games.

Any advice appreciated.

Not Bad but wait till later in the year all the high street retailers will be fighting for your business and desperate to turn stock into cash.

Playing games? Which games? According to HotUKDeals it's £374.

The price the OP quoted is EXCL VAT.

An advert designed to suck you in with what appears to be a bargain and hoping you don't immediately notice the bit that says excluding VAT until you've clicked the "add to basket" button.

Though £374 is not a terrible price to pay if you would like to have the latest processor.

I ordered this one this morning as needed one for uni. Best price I have seen for spec I wanted eg size, weight, processor etc. HP laptop, HP mouse, HP case, McAfee Internet Security and bluetooth headset with car charger (which is free gift) - all for under £400. Not including money I will get back from cashback... Im happy with that. If I was you though, I would wait till xmas as will be loads of deals on.
