    Yeah you guessed it, another help me pick a laptop thread :o

    Okay so I'm thinking of buying a laptop sometime between now and January, unfortunately my budget is really low. Around €450-€500
    I'd like to get a Core i3 processor with 4Gb RAM, can't really ask for much with that budget now can I..

    I saw this on the PCWorld website today Looks decent but it does look a bit underpriced. Also I have no experience at all with Asus so I don't know what they're like

    This has been on sale on the Argos website for many years

    How does the 380M i3 compare to the 2330M? Also both graphics cards look equally low end, any comparisons? Not really into gaming but I see that one of my childhood favourites has a new game coming up ;)

    The absence of a HDMI port in the Asus doesn't really bother me and the presence of USB 3.0 ports doesn't win me over either to be honest..
