Laptop advice

Tusky · 2008-12-22 16:27:33

Looking to get a laptop as a gift for someone. Have a budget of between 500-600 euro. It will be used for college work and browsing the internet. Would it be worth my while waiting for the sales in January ? If yea could point me towards a good deal either online or in a bricks and mortar store, I would muchly appreciate…

Since you're based in Dublin, this company are definately worth looking at. Online store but you can collect and save on the delivery charges.
