Unfortunately they just don't have the room for a permanent set up like this and trying to find a big screened laptop cheaply seems impossible.

How cheap u want it if less than 150 go for used or u will end up it getting to slow within a year or 2. U can pick up decent used laptops for real good prices try ebay gumtree etc.

I'd say £300 maximum. I've been keeping my eye on Argos eBay outlet but nothing has come up.

You'll struggle to get a normal laptop of most sizes for £300, only the most popular 15".

Dell's Inspiron 17 5000-series models are usually one of the cheapest 17" models around. They're currently £530 but they often go into the four hundreds:

For several years now Intel have been using Celeron and Pentium to cover two different CPU designs with a very wide range of performance. The difference between two celerons can be much larger than the typical difference between an i3 and an i7.

Fortunately they've done something about it lately, labelling the CPUs that share the i3/i5/i7 design as Gold and the lower power ones that share the Atom design as Silver.

So the gold models are good budget choices, but I'd avoid the silver ones.

Ok thanks for that extra information

Probably not the best but I got this one as it popped up refurbished with a warranty on Argos/eBay.

I also need a 17" Laptop, for my dad, only does web browsing and some word processing/basic excel.

Current laptop is now getting very old, and it is quite heavy.

This is the one he currently has:
