    Anyway back on Topic!

    Looking at spending a Max of £500 as I have a £3K pc with Galactical storage and more processing power than I'll ever need so this Laptop is really just for Bike software use and gen surfing and watching the Bike racing in the Garden over the summer months so screen size, resolution and anti glare are key so I guess that means a Matt screen.

    Just thought that as it'll be used outside a fair bit that the Thinkpads are more robust than the more Media/Gaming oriented models?

    Copied the Full program off the portable HDD that it came on and used it direct from the Laptop.

    Full prog including WIS is over 60Gb, you're welcome to a copy if I had a way to send it 2 U?

    Other option... Easter sales round the corner and always deals to be had, but the i5 one at £320 looks fairly reasonable to me
