Hi
I need a new laptop as ours have gone kaput. We already have a ipad so don't really need a great spec, but need it for typing on word, Skype and general Internet usage with some downloading.
Am thinking maybe:

Or

Would really appreciate some advice as really don't have a clue. It's all just numbers to me and I don't know what they mean!
Definitely needs to be less than £400 (closer to £300 better)
Thanks!
