    Depends - what did you pay for it?

    I worry when they list the operating system as a feature of a laptop. I also worry when they don't mention laptops on the Goodmans.co.uk site.

    TBH, if you paid less than 600 Euro overall, then it probably isn't too bad. It will only do basic word processing/internet. No games on this one, but if that's what you want it for, it should be ok.

    We accept:
    # Bank deposits / transfers
    # Postal orders, personal cheques
    [and that's it]
    That also makes me a little worried.. :)

    TBH, if it was 2nd hand .. < €450 would be a good price..

    If you paid more than €450-500 tops you were robbed.

    Its obsolete. Its ok for an entry level laptop, but there is much better around for not much more.
