How much did it set you back in the end Jen?

£427. I get 5% back from quidco. So just over £400 once that goes through.
So on the higher end of my budget but everything I wanted so I don't mind

Just got an email to say the delivery date is on or before 28th March But I'm hoping that gets moved up slightly as when I've bought Dells before they gave a long delivery date then it got moved up a week or so.
The delivery time was the only thing that put me off Dell really but it'd be daft to spend over the odds just to get it quicker.

Nice laptop Jen Seems roughly on par with mine power wise and it does everything I want it to do. Yours will be nicer though as Dell seriously kick ass when it comes to laptops

Looks a similar spec to mine Jen

Mine is a slightly faster chip but a lower spec graphics card. I'm running Vista64 as well. Shoudl suit you fine

I have it And typing on it now. Very nice mainly uninstalling unwanted crap at the moment but very impressed with the screen and speed.
Also just noticed that system properties are reporting the CPU to be a T7250 running at 2.0ghz.....when I ordered the 1.6ghz variety. The invoice with it said it was a 1.6ghz and I've had the money taken out for the 1.6ghz system too.
So that's rather nice

Right now to get used to the touchpad and keyboard Although if I can learn to use a mouse left handed and not lose any speed, I should be able to manage this
