It's powerful little economy laptop for £300 from Lenovo. Expect great office use and DVD playback. Note that this laptop comes with the very restricted "basic" Windows Vista so RAM upgrades and some operating system functions are restricted.

A rather outdated processor and hardware makes this a second choice after the Lenovo but its an economy laptop. However, if it makes sense you can upgrade your RAM for a reasonable cost and it will work better with Vista Home Premium.
