    Hi shamrock2004,

    In regards to the prestigio, it has a slightly faster processor then the dell, it has decent enough RAM(512Mb), a bigger harddrive then the other 2(60GB comopared to 40 on the others). One set back is that it has shared video memory, it doesnt say how much but its usually 64MB. This essentially means that the 64MB used for graphics is taken out of your RAM leaving you with 448MB (i think!). That fine if you're just using it for spreasheets etc. Another thing is the screen size is only 12.1" which is quite small when compared to the 15.4" on the Dell.

    The Dell has the more RAM(768MB), a slightly smaller HD (40GB) but this can be upgraded for €80 and also the battery can be upgraded for €10 and you would still be within budget. It doesnt mention graphics however.

    I wouldnt go for anything out of Pc World myself, i also wouldnt buy a celeron because ive heard a lot of bad things. Anyway ill get to the point, if it was my money it would be on the Dell, but saying that, theres no price on the prestigio. Let me know if you've any other questions. Sorry i tend to go on a bit
