Techie advice

[Mr Mojo Risin]

I'm having to buy another laptop and am looking to spend no more than £500

I'd need it for downloading film and music, playing football manager and doing office work as well as browsing the net.

I know fuck all really about stuff like that, are there any particular brands I should look out for or are there any decent deals on any decent models at the minute?

Thanks in advance.

the experts on hotukdeals say that asus is the best as it lasts longer but someone will have had a bad asus. for me its packard bell that sucks (battery problems, I hadn't searched google (you can't search for everything)

i got a asus with i7 & usb3 for £499 at xmas its £550 now tho, you want one with usb3(watch its not a sales trap and usb 2.0) for the newer faster hardrdives

best on hukd is

Find the one you want then search for where you can get it the cheapest.
I bought a refurb pc the other week off Currys website, you still get 12 months warranty for alot less than brand new.

To be honest it looks brand new to me.
