E300 is slow.
Laptop with similar speed with that is £270.

Only benefit is 5 years warranty. And who know if they still in business in 5 years time.. Playing extra £100 for 4 year warranty is your decision.

With your budget ~ £375, the fastest laptop from them would be

This assume you won't use it for gaming.

Try these - fairly good and reputable and prices decent too - I always hesitate buying laptops from ebay buyers...

With £500 to spend, look for intel i5 like these

and this is the only i7 I manage to find at £500. This will be the fastest. However, I don't really like the look of Acer E1

If you don't mind refurb, this is at good value

However, one thing you may consider is if you want a touchscreen laptop/ Convertible. They would be useful with the new Windows 8/ 8.1
