Re: Laptop wanted
Don't know if this helps but at the local computer fairs around here you can get a reasonbale spec. one for about £250 - 350. I have not looked at these in detail so I do not know if they are new or refurbished. It may be worth checking locally

Re: Laptop wanted
For that price difference if the spec is the same or similar I would go with a new one if only for the guarentee. Laptops are difficult and expensive to repair if they go wrong.

Re: Laptop wanted
Problem is prices have fallen so much in last year, that people have unrealistic expectations of value of their s/h laptop..... go new.
