windows laptop recommendations

I need a standard size, good quality laptop, not too expensive, around £350 - I need it for office type progs like MS Office 2010. I do need something quite fast so I'm not keen on AMD or Celeron processors.

4 or more usb ports would be good.

Where from? Laptops Direct?

My current ASUS is about 4 years old and well past its best - its Win 7 and its really slow.

Thanks.

    Back up your data and run a clean install/factory restore and it will be fast.

    What is the full model number?
