laptop buying tips

Got the second one in the end, the first one was high £300s when I followed the link. I'll blame you if it's tulip !

Well done, a wise purchase!

You're right about the price, it was £400 something at one point, then high threes, then it was discounted. They had about 100 when I bought mine and they'd sold the lot within about 3 days.

I think it's a great laptop, I borrowed my friends HP 530 and thats very similar. I think the keyboard is much better on the 6720's. They must have used different switches to the 530 because visually the keyboards are identical. Perfect for the lazy typist (me) because you don't have to pound the keys.

Hmmm - A celeron processor & Vista.
Might be a bit slow

No, not at all. 2GB ram and it's as good as gold. I was intending to put XP on it when I got it, but it runs really well with Vista.

Has more than enough horsepower for most people. It's as good as my dual core 64 bit lappy for work, surfin and everyday tasks.

Runs cool and has great battery life. I've learnt that high spec isn't always the order of the day.

I really like mine. Bargain price and perfect for everyday contractor stuff.
