seems like a good deal, but is the other acer better? I don't know the difference between the processors so I don't know is turion is better than sempron.Sigless0 -

My OH plays strategy & simulation games (command & conquer etc) which require quite a lot of memory (I assume, as they play really slowly on our laptop). We're wanting something that can play these, but can also be used for the internet. Our budget is about £400 so not a lot to play with I'm afraid

Hi If you decide to buy for dell then google wizmark computers they have all the dell codes there. Be warned though Dell's Price's have gone up since december not down. I was lucky to buy last month and the laptops price has gone up by £800

bograt2004.Thanks for that ....wizmark computers .that looks good.I am not looking for a laptop but with a bit of luck Rev,will get back here and see it.0

Thanks. Found a deal on wizmark. I think I'll go for a dell inspiron, I know the celeron processors are pretty much old hat now but it seems I can't afford the newer ones. And the turion only comes with 512mb of ram, the celeron comes with a gig of ram so I won't have to buy more ram.Sigless0

Well done bograt2004.0
