Very simple. I've got about £800 to spend on a laptop.
Will be used for web and the odd game.
Anyone got recommendations?
Been looking at Toshibas and Acers.
Cheers,

yes dabs. www.dabs.com/productview.aspx?Quicklinx=4CFJ&SearchType=1&SearchTerms=lenovo+n100&PageMode=3&SearchKey=All&SearchMode=All&NavigationKey=0
get this memory for it, cheaper, take it to 2G (max)

or just get one of them and take it to 1.5G, both dimm slots are on the back for easy access. has built in web cam, and bluetooth too. And 256MB nVidia graphics card. I think it says only 64MB (and no it's not robbing memory from the 2G installed either)
core duo 2 also available for about 200 more I think, not worth it. Same with the R60, almost same spec but about 200£ moe and no widescreen high res display. IT's a BARGAIN, snap it up!

it's got a smaller screen with lower resolution, slower front side bus for the cpu (533Mhz - so your 667Mhz memory wont run at that), only 1MB of level 1 cache and it's £200 more with the same 2G ram, says it's only got 128MB graphics card too.
has got a larger hard drive and it looks nicer than the lenovo though -doesn't look like a bad buy. I've never liked compaq/hp laptops, I think IBM Thinkpads/lenovo's are far better built and this lenovo seems to have pretty good build quality.
