Default OTish; Laptops


Reluctant to change from MS Windows simply because I know how to use it.

Any advice on processor type, memory, make, supplier much appreciated.

Sorry, should have said, budget around the £500 mark.



I've always used 'refurbished' ex corporate laptops as you get solid
machines for not much money. My current one is a HP Elitebook 8440p which
cost me well under £200 complete with a legal copy of Windows 7 and a 12
month guarantee. Perfectly adequate for my needs. I use it mainly as a
portal to my desktop machine which is in my office on the other side of the
farmyard, so can use it without going outside. Mind you it has a higher spec
than the desktop !!!

Yep quite agree. I needed a laptop for carting around with me didn't
want to risk a new one got one from here looked almost new, a year or so
out of date but with WIN 7 and 64 bit and that for a hundred sheets

Well happy...
