TLicense Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 My girlfriend is looking to get a laptop, mainly for photo editing (she'll be running photoshop). She doesn't really want to spend more than about £400. It doesn't really have to be able to do anything more demanding than run photoshop. Can anyone recommend anything?

JamesC Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Photoshop can be quite demanding if your editing large pictures. I use my trusty old Dell laptop for everything though and dont have a bad word to say about it. Had a TV fall on it and it's been dropped etc but it's still plodding on Buy direct from Dell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Depends what OS you're gonna get, probably vista? I'd recommend 4GB ram, vista uses about 800mb! I don't know much about makes of laptops tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
