Fujitsu Amilo Pro V3505 £369.99 incl VAT

patricia1066

Insight UK is selling this Intel Core Duo laptop for £469.99 incl vat and the manufacturer pays £100 cashback. Its not a gamers machine unless you are prepared to stick to Direct X8 games, as the graphics chip is integrated and uses up to 266MB from system memory. As it comes with only 516 MB installed this would be slow. It would cope well with video editing I believe, provided you upped the Ram. Windows XP Pro is a bonus as far as I am concerned.
