Please read the charter, especially the bit that says "How to ask for help".

If we don't know what you will be using it for, we can't give a relevant recommendation.

Also, in my opinion, you are stone wall mad buying from the US and having it shipped here. There is a very high probability will get get caught at customs where they will add not only VAT, but import duty too, which will actually make it more expensive than if you purchased it here.

mostly will be using for website design... wats the percentage of ppl that wud get checked by customs...could also get it sent over as a package labeled as a present

Ah yes, the old "present" trick. I am sure customs have never seen that before. :rolleyes:

Edit: Oh, and yes, that machine will do the job for what you want.

My soon to be new vostro laptop as mentioned in my sig cost just over 1000. Dell are taking their time about building and delivering though. Maybe its just my excitement getting the best of me.
