I do, that's why I can back what I write with hard evidence.
Like to see more? The DELL with the P6200 processor
Where is the link to the Free Delivery claimed?
Where is the credibility when criticising a Celeron Processor at this price point and than actually posting a recommendation for one?
Ridiculous.0 -

In fact your 'recommendation' is not "sub £250". Notwithstanding, I would prefer to pay the little extra for the superior processor and graphics capability, the Express Card expansion slot, the HDMI output, the extra USB slot, the superior webcam and the built in Bluetooth module....0 -

under budget at less than £240 and will do most tasks the average user will want and will even be able to some simple gaming (ati 4270 which is more powerful than the intel HD 2000), if ram is a problem as pointed out £10 will get an extra 2gbDrop a brand challenge
on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -

A welcome addition.Though I'm not sure that I can agree with the statement about the Graphics card being more powerful than HD Graphics 2000.
Not that it will likely matter for the OP's stated usage.0 -

its a close thing but in general (of course does depend on the benchmark) the 4250 and 4270 is slightly more powerful than the HD2000 on the older core i cpus but not as powerful as the HD 3000 on the sandy bridge
