Such a shame delivery takes up a whopping £60 of that, could've used it to upgrade a few things. Decent enough though.

Great find on this as mentioned in the MikeT 1400 thread, can't understand why this is being neglected. Have some rep as well.

It should, but if you have one from an old laptop that can be used, it might as well get the price down.

They'd say "use punctuation next time".

Anyone got a recommendation for the Power Supply? It the 90W better value or just more expense? What real difference does it make?

By the way - really excellent find Emasu, these Vostro Celeron's are pretty good. It looks like I'm finally going to take the plunge after a long search for a cheap (but good) laptop. - Heat and Rep added, keep up the good work!

!

Looking at MikeT's other Vostro thread, this is a muck up by Dell. a 65 watt adapter is included.
