Dalziel Kane Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 I did consider the cut and paste job damn it as one plausible theory but then again someone may just have taken the time to put in an effort and writing in their own words, a commodity in such short supply anymore. Why not just give the link to page instead of a cut and paste job anyway, but I'll let it rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 There is more blue in the world than anything else, if you really think about it. Not all of it good I'm afraid, but merely an accurate statistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Look - Ten thousand posts. Quite a milestone. I had a look at the last link and most of the prices are still damn expensive, besides reductions, and money don't grow on trees. We don't need any more additions anyway, got a PC and Laptop and that is enough, there's no sense in going out and buying more contraptions. Heard it before that Dell is a company to avoid, poor quality products and all. We have a Medion, and Germany is usually relied upon for it's efficiency and thus far we have only had one major complaint with it, which was down to human error in the end, it's a bit big and heavy though compared to more recent models.

MikeO Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Time has come to replace my aging Acer. Sooo slow now no matter what I try.

That sort of spec is more than enough for what I need, just a shame it's the wrong shade of blue. Budget is £400-ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budget is £400-ish. wait for the intel skylake chip to be launched later this year - 2 things will happen - existing models will drop in price big time so you can either get a really good deal on an outdated model or get a more future proof model for what you may pay now. In short - keep your powder dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting blue screens pretty regularly and my CPU usage hits 100% as soon as I open a single web page; I think death is imminent, though I'll stick it back to factory settings once I get a new one and see if that solves stuff. Maybe have it as a back-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcopaulo Posted July 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Ebay has some good laptops on daily offers...getting one myself soon just gotta decide what I want to go for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Got the HP. Looking good so far, can't believe it when it tells me I've got eight hours battery time left. PC World sales guys are a joke though, watching them flog extended guarantees to old peple makes me angry. Then the guy tried to sell me an "already set up" version of mine for an extra £30! How difficult is it to "set up" a laptop and how far could they have got with it without personal details? Numpties. But just doing their job I guess. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Laptops are upgraded by the month, you'll be fine with HP. I'll only ever buy another laptop again if I've no choice; tablet and desktop cover everything for me. Really depends what you want to do with it.

I'll only ever buy another laptop again if I've no choice; tablet and desktop cover everything for me. Really depends what you want to do with it. Can understand that. But we've just got a small house so nowhere practical for a desktop (Josh's bedroom aside); built the cabin in the garden years ago with my "den" in mind and had a desk/computer/comfy chairs (and soft cushions) but it gets too hot in the summer and is too expensive to heat in the winter so not practical. So I need to be mobile. And I love my tablet, used it exclusively on holiday, but I just can't type fast enough on it. One finger warrior sadly, same as on the phone .

There are a couple of days when it is neither too hot or too cold, make the most of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
