As title really, my current one is on its last legs but theres so many laptops out there ive no idea what to get. Looking at spending £400 most, dont really need it to do anything fancy but be a decent quality though. Any ideas ????
Acer aspire 5733 about £300 16 month ago been great no probs,good job as i bought it from Comet whos gone bust lol
I have an Apple MacBook Air, which is far too complex for my needs. Much prefer a Sony or something similar.
toshiba satellite for me, had two in the last ten years and not a single issue... never let me down £400 will get a good spec one to
Every single piece of IT kit we have bought for our Business over the last 12 years or so has been a top 10 buy from these lot. Budget laptop reviews | Budget laptop deals, ratings, user reviews and prices - PC Advisor As said, ya cannee go wrong with a Samsung/Toshiba/Dell at £500 or less
Bought my partner a Lenovo for Christmas, Chinese and fast becoming a top seller. Has more bells and whistles but costs less than Sony, Toshiba etc.
I have a Compaq, which is still going strong , even though its slowed up it is 6yrs old, & i have just purchased a HP for £399( 1tb mem, 8gig ram, amd quad core with the everso funky Windows 8).
MacBook Pro. 15" retina would be nice... In case you're wondering why, they're tough. very tough. The body is milled from a solid billet of Aluminium. I have yet to destroy one, while almost every single previous laptop I've had (Thinkpads usually) have delaminated the Gfx chip from the MB as they flex when you pick them up or carry them by the corner of the body.

I bought a Dell intel corei7 from the dell refurbished site for less than £400. It came with a full warrantee and didn't have a single mark on it! Best bargain i've ever come across.
Got a new acer a few week's ago from very. 1Tb memory , 8gb I5 Intel ram and 1gb dedicated graphics memory. Battery lasts about 2.5hrs so far no matter how many programs you Have running an stays nice and cool with no fan noise. Stupidly fast for processing images and video's but its Downfall is windows 8, has too much of a mac feel to it but a few Mods later is has my preferred windows vista look about it...... Oh and it was nice and cheap.
I have always had a good run from HPs but I would rate Toshiba as good or better. I have to say though, windows 8 leaves me cold
Gave up on laptops last year and gone to iPad, does everything I need, 400 quid would get you a 32gb iPad 2 and a decent printer if you need it. Plus it fits in a kriega us10 for working out where the hell I am on the maps.
I would go for Dell if you're on a budget, you can get some good prices if you shop around. the Lenovo laptop ive just been given from work seems a bit 'less plastic-y' than some others out there, although not sure how much it cost. Cant really go wrong with a macbook, ive gone through 3 so far and they have all been reliable, only upgraded due to spec etc
Take a look they've got loads in stock at the moment too: http://outlet.euro.dell.com/Online/InventorySearch.aspx?brandId=7&c=uk&cs=ukdfh1&l=en&s=dfh
this one, be careful if you find a cheaper priced one as there is cheaper ones but they are 6gb ram without the 1gb dedicated graphics ram. Acer V3-571 Intel® Core™ i5 Processor, 8Gb RAM, 1Tb Hard Drive, 15.6 inch Blu-ray Laptop with 1Gb Dedicated Graphics - Black | Very.co.uk
