How much would you pay for this laptop?

[Bob_the_lost]

Very shiny. Over speced for an office laptop but at that price why not?

so you think it's a scam?

aren't you covered by your CC if goods don't come?

Yes, you are covered by your CC if it is a scam, over an inital £50 or something, which they nearly always waive. I recon it's a scam.

yes but its £80 brandnew

and £80 for a brand spanking new laptop I think we can overlook the celeron processor.

Probably right up until the point you start trying to do much with it...

I'll be interested to see what the machines (should they ever actually be delivered to anyone) perform like on a mid-long term basis, and what their warranty support is like for things like hardware failures...

For that money, I'm going to guess "amusing". Unless you're the customer, of course.

Personally, I've already got 2 above that spec, so no need to purchase simply because it's cheap.

For a simple machine for office apps and web browsing it'll never really tax those specs.

S'got Linux pre-installed, so I'd make sure the user isn't XP insistent.

If they are, I'd upgrade the RAM, especially with that processor.
