JustGav Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Depends, what do you want them to do? If you are willing to miss the blu-ray player, netbooks aren't bad thing, small and cheap, BUT not uber powerful and they certainly aren't desktop/laptop replacements.

Alex Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Try Dell Studio machines should fit the bill though BD drives in lappy's under 500 are rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snooze Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Acer. Good features, but not fantastic build quality, so be a bit wary if they're going tobe in for some abuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen them and they seem pretty good for the money, I did consider one for the HTPC a while back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkirby Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 yeh go for a dell, i looked for ages for a nice spec laptop with hdmi and bluray etc and ended up with a studio 15 and its really good, they also do a studio 17 with a slightly bigger screen but slightly lesser spec. both under £500 and i got mine from pc world, think it was £480 Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
