    although Lenovo and Asus tend to offer slightly better reliability (going on the last reliability surveys i have seen) in that ~20% of Acer's will fail within 3 years compared to ~15% of Lenovo and Asus - this being said that still means 80% or more of each are still running fine after 3 years no matter what brand you get

    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)
