Depends if you think this is for a complete system. This is actually a barebones Laptop which means you will have to add a processor, memory,network(Wi-Fi) card, hard drive and dvd drive. Nice if you whant to customise, to suit yourself, but adding it all up you will probably get cheaper elsewhere buying a complete Laptop.

Temmpting - but it depends on what the CPU support is.

RAM would be about £30, WiFi card about £15 (for good stuff). HDD is around £60 (for a 500GB nice unit). DVD drive is probably about £20.

Thanks for the comments - agree that adding the rest might take it into cold territory!
