[r_j_k_p]

After much research i think this would be the best package for the price.
It comes to £316.19 (inc VAT) with the £50 off special deal, and an extra 10% off using a voucher, and free delivery.

What do you guys think? good deal?

[dave87]

Looks good to me.

Depends really what she's going to use it for, but it seems a good all round spec.

cheers dave.
saves me phoning you just before i buy it..

If you can find the extra cash for a truelife screen that would be a worthy upgrade. The dell anti glares leave a lot to be desired.

[r_j_k_p]

ah really
how bad is it? because although it may annoy the average hexite, my gf isn't the most technologically minded person and as a result wouldn't even notice if her keyboard went walkies...

[staffsMike]

Lol well it's usuable. Might need to have the screen at a slightly funny angle for optimal viewing. I havn't used the vostro matte screens but the latitude's have always been very bleached and a little dull for me.
