Need a new laptop

[Chippiewill]

One of the hinges on my old one just snapped from heat damage and the lid now folds diagonally, it looks trendy but it's probably not to healthy for the laptop. I need something around £400 almost entirely for web surfing, it should be able to handle full screen video at it's native resolution without sounding like it's running Crysis and the screen should be at least 15". I also prefer intel but that doesn't really matter at all.

I favour:
HP

I despise (Alot):
Dell
Sony (I doubt I'm within price range anyway)

I'd also prefer to buy from John Lewis because they have two year warranty by default but I'm flexible about that.

Any suggestions?

Oh that's very nice thanks, +rep

I'll still take any other suggestions. Also I'd be willing to pay a little more if it bumps up the battery life a bit.

Apart from having three motherboard replacements and two power adapter replacements in one year... nothing.

Yes, because either of those are £400 :rolleyes:

Also (not in reply to you Chippie, fair enough if you don't like them) Dell are fine, had no problems in the 100s of laptops I've used/purchased in the past 8 years.
