Im after a cheap laptop for my son who's in the army and wants to keep in contact with us.
Does anyone have one for sale or can point me in the right direction where i can get one locally, new or old?

the obvious place to look is ebay, but it depends how much you mean when you say cheap because i think pc-world do one for about £200 which is quite cheap

I "might" have one going cheap.... It aint a brand spanker but for less that £100 it'd be a bargain, it aint an acer or nowt but its served me well the past 8months (Getting rid cause I brought a new / 2nd hand one from ebay a fortnight ago) Its a Advent, details of which is below... www.uktsupport.co.uk/advent/laptop/6480.htmWill come factory rebooted and ready to go, Ive just installed another 256mb ram and it already has 128mb installed, doesnt run as fast as a rocket but for internet and emails and stuff runs a-ok! Im waiting for my nephew to give me an answer this evening, obviously family first and all that but it might be going for a good price. Let me know if your interested and ill let ya know by tomorrow.. |
