So basic office work, general internet pottering?
Look at the basic and cheap Dell ranges, £300 is the starting price for a pretty basic unit that would meet all of these needs.

If you want to play serious games on the machine look at the Dell XPS laptops; they're preactically portable workstations rather than laptops

thankyou, ill check those out, just pottering really, music, dvd player useful, and for doing coursework.

Base models should suit your needs, you only need processing power for games, photo/video editing and some other maths intensive software.
