Jump to unread Post a CommentIf it could handle TF2/L4D2 on low settings, I'd definitely consider this. Any idea about battery life also?
It's mostly for browsing/email school/college work sometimes he downloads tracks never full album don't play games etc
Does this have Bluetooth and how easy is it to upgrade ram?
There is one on savealaptop for £329 ram upgraded to 6g but not intel i3
Thanks

For the uses you've stated this is more than enough. Upgrading ram can just be removing some screws and clipping extra ram modules into place. Some manufactures glue the sticks in place making life more complicated. You don't need 6gb of ram I get by fine with 2gb of ram in my gaming pc. For uses you've said you'll benefit more from i3 processor then 6gb of ram. It doesn't say about bluetooth but you can alway buy a usb dongle for blue tooth connectivity. Hope this is helpful.
also im sure it comes with 2 years warranty
this is the one i was talking about in the post

Not for me thanks... Used to have a fujitsu-siemens with shared graphics. Dual core 1.7 & 2gb RAM - it wouldnt run vista aero because of the stupid graphics... bottlenecked the entire laptop. Quickly replaced with toshiba that has Radeon 2600 HD, far smoother and quicker!
A few points of note, this is a 380M which is at the top end of the i3 range and is Windows 7 64 bit. I am getting well over 3 hours batter life.
There are a number of models in the C660 range with various processor / memory / hard drive configurations and this was the best price I could find (£349) for this 1F1 model. You can also get up to £75 trade (link on Argos).
I've had a number of Toshiba’s over the years and never had any problems. If you want HDMI out or dedicated graphics then buy something else (but it will cost you!)

Need a working old laptop. I have about 3 which pretty much work and should do the job - just need to see which fits the < 4 year old thing - there's a way of checking on above site.
This should be a lot hotter.
Good price for a top end Core i3 cpu equipped laptop.
It doesn't have dedicated graphics so it can't really be used for gaming...true, however, for those of us who need a faster cpu, without the frills, this is perfect. I've searched and I can't find another laptop with a Core i3 (380) cpu, at this price.
Unless someone can point me in the direction of a better deal (ie. has a core i3 cpu at a lower price), this is the best value laptop (with a fast cpu), that I can find.
