Need Help Buying Laptop For Parents

[KingOfQueens]

Hi all

I want to buy my parents a new laptop each but I'm clueless as to which ones. The reviews are always mixed and I get completely baffled.

I'm buying from the tesco direct website.

What I need is as follows

Mum - just uses laptop for family tree research, Fb, emails and general internet browsing

Dad - Fb, emails, browsing and placing occasional horse racing bets lol

Both must be able to store god know how many pics of the grandkids.

Doubt they can use windows 8 but if they have to have it then I'll teach them. Both of their eyesight is getting pretty dodgy so a clear screen is a MUST.

Hope someone can help

Thanks

PC Specialist or Chillblast will build a laptop for you. The PC Specialist forums are recommended for advice. They can sell the laptop with Windows 7 installed and their prices are cheaper than other retailers without reduction in the quality of componants. Recommend at least a 15'' screen. From the notes about usage, I doubt your parents need to spend much over £350.
