Looking For Good Value For Money Laptop?

stevilevi

Hi,

I wonder if someone could help me? I am in the process of looking to buy my 16 year old daughter a Laptop as a present. She has special needs. So, what I'm looking for is something that is solid and is a good all rounder. I am looking to spend £400plus. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Depends what you mean by "solid". If you mean "rugged" then you'll have to spend alot more than £400. If you're just after a budget laptop this might do -> http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/5083383.htm

Coincidentally this is described as "rugged" but I don't think there's anything special about the build quality. It does have a 3 year gaurantee though.

EDIT: cheaper and slightly higher spec -> http://www.amazon.co.uk/Acer-Notebook-i3-370M-processor-Wireless/dp/B004EBUX12/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1294850238&sr=8-1
BUT only 1 year warranty
