Looking at a Dell Inspiron 15

So the girlfriend needs a new laptop. I'm an Apple guy so I'm quite out of touch with modern PC's. I normally just go to the Apple store and buy the mid-range computer.

I've seen a Dell Inspiron 15 for £287 on Asda Direct. It's an Intel Pentium T4500 dual core cpu. WLED display. 3gb ram, 320gb drive etc.

Main uses are browsing and editing photos in Lightroom.

It looks alright, but it's got 3/5 stars on the Dell website. Plenty of complaints. I hate buying things online as its so easy for people to complain. For the price I doubt I'd find a nicer machine, looks and performance wise. I've been searching the forum and there does seem to be a lot of love for Dell.

Yay or nay?
