400 were from?

sounds like you need a netbook - have a look at dabs or ebuyer (other websites are available) - its basically a cut down version of a laptop, you get a lot of surfing power, wireless facility and decent storage and usb connections so you can add peripherals such as a card reader for your piccies. what you dont get is a cd/dvdrom drive and of course the screen is smaller than that of a laptop

Hullbg do you repair laptops ?...My battery connection (where it is plugged into the laptop) is not working, it is an 13month old Dell

with him being 60 and a little on the sight problems creeping in, will the screen be big enough for him to get a netbook? for the extra few quid it may cost for a laptop

with the new ipad the netbook will be a thing of the past imo.

bit of a price difference at the mo though isn't there?

regarding the netbook screens the quality and resolutions are excellent 10 inch screens may be a bit small though (its 15 to 16 inches for a laptop) and decent priced ones (£350 upwards) should be just fine
