    might be a silly question but howhas it died? - as not all computer deaths are total

    and as far as what you do and what you need, really anything you can buy should be able to do that, personally i would suggest keeping an eye on places like argos ebay outlet, earlier today they had a 'reasonable' (in that it would do everything you need) laptop for around £200
    Drop 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)
  • Most things on a laptop are repairable, list the symptoms.

    Is it completely dead?
