2004 Dell D600 has finally packed up. Need a replacement, doesn't have to be all bells and whistles. 400 notes, any recommendations ? Would like ability to reload from scratch if possible (only way to fix a lot of issues).

As you like Dell get another Dell.

If you're going to reload from scratch, just get a cheap one with the required hardware spec. I recently did that with an Acer. Wiped the disc and rebuilt. Now it's fast with no f***ing nag screens and other unwanted sh*t running on it!

I've heard good things about this outfit. You can configure the laptop to your own needs and even save money by not having an OS installed! Handy if like me you have spare Windows 7 licences lying around, or want something more exotic like Linux.

Stumbled across them while looking for laptops with decent resolution screens (i.e. at least 1080p) and then checked the reviews/reputation to find they are well regarded from what I saw. Not yet bought from them but intend doing soon.Last edited by PAH; 19 April 2011, 12:29.Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it

HP all the way.
Both Desktops and Laptops let you do a restore to factory state very quickly and easily. Also not bad in terms of reliability, looks and use.Comment

Get a Dell. Lots of deals and vouchers and money off on the web. A million corporate customers can't be wrong.Comment

yeah this is where I got my new lappy from - great service, my only complaint was that it came with the Windows 7 installer (when I specified no OS) and the only way to get XP on there was to format the drive - in my frustration to get going I forgot to get the drivers off the disk so when I installed XP half my components didn't work - not to worry though rung the guys there and they sent me a driver disk with all the XP stuff I needed that I couldn't find online.Originally posted by PAH View Post
word of advice though if going for a large screen laptop- don't get the xl carry case- its whopping!sufficiently advanced stupidity is indistinguishable from malice - Asimov (sort of)
