    Laptop for £800

    What will 800 quid get ya atm?

    Key features - battery life, durability and reliability. Doesn't need to be a speed freak.

    Cheers.

    edit: And ignore Acer products, my Acer laptop has durability issues.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    The Dell Inspiron 510m Would be pretty good. It's centrino so no worries with battery life

    I have no shame. Oh yeah - the laptop is basically the NC8430, so its business class quality.

    Dell Inspiron 6400 with decent specs? - Mine was £940 after upgrades - Core Duo 2ghz, 2gb RAM, x1300, 80gb Hdd & 1680x1050 screen - oh and the 9 cell battery for longer use on the move
