    Their cheapest one is 270 euro, that is too much for me.

    You want a laptop for less than €270? I presume you're looking for a netbook then, not a laptop. You should get a netbook for around €250 in high street shops (Argos, Currys, PC World, etc). Anything less than that is probably going to be crap.

    The cheapest laptop site you'll find are probably Laptopsdirect, but they are a terrible company to deal with, absolutely no customer support or service. I wouldn't even recommend them to someone I didn't like. Google it and you'll see what I mean.

    Yes yes that's right I need a netbook. Sorry for bad wording. I don't need it to be good. All it needs to do is surf the web and use skype.

    You should try local shops, but I think €250 is about as low as you'll get on a netbook.

    Pixmania aren't great for complex electronics like Laptops, if it goes wrong!

    I'd save a little and buy in a shop, just for the handyness if something goes wrong with it!
