New Laptop

You are such a bad ass getting your laptop at tesco Jin ;)

Anyway if you just want a laptop to do work and watch porn on then get £400 one like a dell or HP with decent specs - no need for Anything fancy.

To be honest with the way laptop technology developments is accelerating I think £800 is far too steep a budget. You could pick up the perfect full sized laptop for around £400 perfect for uni.

I personally recommend HP for students as they are well rounded machines. For instance I didn't have a TV at uni so my laptop was my main source of entertainment, my HP had brilliant speaker quality and came with a remote control allowing me to sit in bed and watch tv on it. Spec wise it was edging onto the upper market end and it cost me £450 from tesco's.

I think I crashed the last laptop that we had.
It was my sister's so it doesn't really matter. It also had no security, so ultimately it was her own fault.

Abused someones staff discount, made the deal that I get the discount they get the clubcard points.

But year in all fairness, save the other £400 because that way when your laptop becomes a bit outdated you can happily ebay it and buy another.

I change laptops every 18 months.

Wow Jin I should totally report that >;D but haha awesome.

And yeah as he said, buy a £400 one, then when you get bored of it/want a new one - get another £400 one, then hopefully from the ebay you might even have enough to have another one for when you leave Uni :D
