Hi,

Well I have £500 to spend and I only need it for going on the net and doing comps etc as we have a desktop the family use, this is going to be MINE. I also want to be able to pick it up from a store and I have been looking at Novatech as they have a store near to me but I am lost can anyone help me pick please.

Do I need Premium or standard Vista?

Quite liked the pink one (I am chick) but think I can get more for my money with Black.

Are Novatech a good brand?

Hi,

I have just found a link to Dirty Dozen 12 laptops so will look at that but any recommendations for Novotech Site would be cool.

Thanks

I quite like the look of this one. I am looking for a laptop too but cannot decide between that and the Apple Mac Notebook.

It is cheaper on Play.com : http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/3593586/Sony-Vaio-NR21-J-S-Pentium-Dual-Core-T2330-1-6GHz-2GB-200GB-15-4-DVD-SM-Vista-Home-Premium-Laptop-Notebook/Product.html

However what you can do is print off the page of the Play.com one and go to your nearest PC World where they will match the price plus give an extra 10% off
