Thinkiing of buying Samsung laptop

This one has caught my eye.
http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/samsung-series-3-3530ea-15-6-laptop-silver-17291830-pdt.html

Just need it for eveyday stuff. Impressed with 6gb memory (i5 processor). Not sure about Samsung laptops. Are they reliable? Originally I was going for A Sony as I've had one before. One i saw was £350 with 4gb memory (i3 procesor). Have I missed something? Is the Sammsung a good deal? Thanks.

    That'll be fine for everyday emailing and internetting and if that's all you will be doing, go for it.

    I'm on a Samsung laptop, so far it's lasted me well for the past year and a bit. No problems at all, hasn't overheated (yet) All the buttons still work.

    My only annoyance is with my mousepad not being entirely under the keyboard which means sometimes when I'm typing I accidently brush it and it clicks and I lose where I'm at. But the one you're looking at doesn't seem to have that problem.

    Got to add that I've carried this out the house a lot, it's well travelled and is still good.

    Still undecided whether to go for Samsung or stick with Sony.
