Hey so here is the labtop Im thinking of buying on Boxing day.
Im just wondering if its a good deal and if the price is right.
It costs $500 Canadian money which comes to around 311 Pounds in England money.
It says 700$ but its on sale for $500

300 quid aint a bad price at all, go for it.
English money lol? You do know it's England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland that use the pound?Quote:

For 311 GBP I'd definitely go for it! Seems like a very good laptop for the price :). It's saying out of stock at the moment though.
Thats due to Things that are gonna be on for the boxing day sale cant be bought untill the 27thQuote:

Pretty much any laptop for £300 is a good deal, so you might as well get it!
Resolution isn't ****. Not sure why you'd assume anything that isn't 1080p is ****, that's ******* ridiculous. And a 5400RPM HDD isn't "crap slow". I wouldn't buy one myself but it isn't crap slow, just slower than 7200 (obviously).
By today's standards, both are absolute ****. The difference between a 5400RPM drive and 7200RPM drive in daily usage is like night and day, same goes for the screen resolution.Quote:

Context is necessary. I don't know the users on this forum, for web developers and designers a higher resolution would be great, but isn't 100% necessary. My laptop is like 1280xsomething and I never had any issues designing or coding on it. It isn't ******* awful. Anything less than 1920x1080 seems to be **** by YOUR standards, not by today's standards. A full HD resolution is definitely not necessary for this person as I can only assume they'll be playing Habbo and listening to music with it.Quote:

What I said is that it isn't the difference between night and day, which it certainly ******* isn't. You are over-exaggerating so much it's unreal.
Next you'll say you need 16GB of RAM to run a Call of Duty game.
