Where can I buy a cheap, new, laptop

[Tock389]

Where can I buy a cheap laptop? I want a brand-new model, which has all the latest gadgets and has a warranty. But I don't want to get ripped off.

Well, that's your problem.  You want all the latest gadgets, a warranty and it has to be cheap?  In all honesty you're going to be struggling getting anything decent for less than �800 minimum.

What specification do you want?  You have screen size, DVD, Wi-Fi, RAM, Graphics Card, Warranty, extra battery, processor speed, etc., many things to take into consideration.  What will you be using it for? 

Dell have laptops from �441 but it comes down to the spec you want!  When I bought my laptop I wanted all the latest stuff on it and I paid �1,100 for it.  You get what you pay for.  You can use smaller companies but you run the risk of being a customer to a company like Tiny/Time which has just gone into receivership.

I saw a cheap one in Woolworths today.  The make was Medion and it had a Celeron processor.  I didn't take much notice because I didn't know you were going to ask.  I don't know what the quality is like, but Woolworths are always there if you have a problem.

Have a look at this link http://www.laptopshop.co.uk/cheap_laptops-u.htm I have had two IBMs for my grandsons (used, not refurbished, which are dearer) and both were excellent. They give a full 12 months RTB warranty. Not new, I know, but as good as it gets.

You could try Morgan - they have overstocks from all the major computer companies at very reasonable prices. http://www.morgancomputers.co.uk/

Or go to a BCS fair, there may be one near you  soon.

As Kebabmeister says - depends on what spec you want. Do you want huge amounts of RAM, very powerful graphics etc. If you won't use them, why pay loads for it. I would suggets that most people don't need 64MB graphics on a laptop - if you are going to play games, either buy a playstation or get a desktop.

I bought one of the Woolworths laptops last night (last one in the shop!) seems ok so far even though I haven't done much with it... Warranty with it. The CD drive is external so that's a bit of a nuisance to cart round with you I spose... It's also a bit heavier that I would have liked, but.. �800 down to half price, can't really complain!

Might aswell post my question while I'm here too...

I'd like to use my NTL broadband connection to surf la t'internet wirelessly on laptop.. Could someone have a quick scan on Amazon or wherever and tell me what I need? Router etc.. Also I'd like to be on USB if possible instead of ethernet..
