the 2 lappies in need of repair just need new screens so they wont take long to sort. just got one for Pauls daughter for her 16th birthday as I was getting a new one for myself. we had also been given a pc for her - that just needs set up as we have a spare printer and scanner for that too

I have had two Dells. They are beautifully made and very reliable, perhaps that is why the Consumers Association voted them top? I certainly would not go for a 3 year guarantee option. Looking at their website is worthwhile as bargains may be picked up. len
