Dell Inspiron 6000
I've been quoted £729 for this laptop, upgrading to bluetooth and also getting all the tools to make my home a wireless environment. Any comments would be appreciated as I am dumb and don't wanna get ripped off. Also if this is a good deal I shall snap it right up!!!
Thanks guys!
Also can anyone give advise on insurances which I could take out to cover for accidental damage etc?

Doesnt sound too bad, it depends on the specs, which processor ram etc etc. You would probably get a better deal if you hang around for the next round of dell deals, which must be soon, so it depends if you are prepared to wait for an indefinite amount of time.
as for accidental damage, check out your house insurance and make sure they cover laptops in and away from the home, mine does but I needed to add the machine to the policy (at no extra cost) and I only have a £50 excess!
