Hiya,
After a laptop to do some Lightroom/PSE 8 work as I only have a media PC which runs my telly at the moment. Would get another sesktop but I live in a tiny flat and there is just no room!

So after something cheap and found this with a decent screen and is cheap (not sure I mentioned that).

Is it any good? Its been a while since I bought any sort of computer...

I think you'll need a bigger flat for that!

There seems to be a distinct lack of reviews around for that model but the few that I've seen don't say anything really bad about it. Heavy, no bluetooth and no Blu-ray support seem to be the only negatives. Use it on a table and the weight is not a problem.

I didnt even know they did 18" screen laptops before I saw that! It will be used on the dining table so that's ok, the missus wouldnt like something permanently there hence a large laptop I though was the way to go, close it and pop it in the cupboard.

If they are the only drawbacks then it's ok, don't need bluetooth, I have a PS3 for blu-ray...
