Has good buyer reviews and is about the cheapest I've seen....

    PC World (and Dixons) have some good deals on refurbished laptops at the moment with the Compaq Presario F560EM having the following better specification for £329.99
    • AMD Athlon 64X2 TK53 Mobile Technology1.70GHz, 1600MHz, 512KB Cache
    • Genuine Windows Vista (R) Home Premium
    • 1GB Memory

    I found PC Checker really useful for comparing and explaining all the different laptops when I recently got a Dell laptop but it hasn't got the ebuyer's laptops on there at the moment.

    Just seen that Dell Vostro one - that is really good for the money!
