A friend of mine has left it to the very last min to get a laptop and he is going away for 6 months on we, he has a max budget of 400 euro.
he will be using it for skype,emails watching movies/hd movies etc

this is the rough list ive come up with on about 2 hours notice which are in stock in argos who have a sale on at the min.
They all come in around 380 euro

At the moment there is a Samsung in PC World for 399. It's down about 240 euros. 4GB RAM, 640GB HDD, Card Reader, HDMI etc.

Bought it there last week. Good offer IMO.

*Actually can't see it. Try the Jervis Street shop. That's where I got it.

any links cant find any samsung laptops for 400 on Pc world

The Toshiba C660 (first Argos) link kills the rest of them.

If you go into a few shops tomorrow looking for a better deal you would want to try get a Sandybridge processor if possible.
Sandybridge is the codename for Intel's latest generation of processors.
Anything called Intel Core i3/i5/i7 2xxx is sandybridge, it doesn't matter which one coz any of them will be better than anything else.

If you can't get a Sandybridge processor the older Core i series is still pretty good.
The Toshiba C660 is from the older Core i series and is a pretty good deal at that price.
