    I'd get extended breakage/damage insurance too, that is offered by many companies including Dell!

    I've got no idea bout the tosh, but they generally build good machines. seen that processor spec used in a Acer with 1G mem and it judders when watching some avi and dvds. Probably will all depend on the game he is going to play too.

    Vista will run like a dog with that processor and RAM. :-(

    It's the basic version, no eye candy, so this should be a bit more useable.

    Thats not too bad spec for the price. I've never seen the Equium range, but the Toshiba Satellite Pro range are well built, so hopefully this wouldnt be too much different.
