    i5 seems best value..are you sure you want to jump to Windows 8?? People are finding the transition a little difficult..Windows 8 best suited to touch screens and people find it hard to navigate around...Windows 7 Pro with same specs would probably suit better for business

    Yeah, don't want 8 at all if it can be helped! But 7 seems to be getting rarer by the day.

    Cheers, had a look at powercity, but don't see any 17-inch, which it has to be. It's needed for the weekend so was hoping I could order tonight with the Amazon 1-2 day delivery to Ireland option.

    Looks like the I5 then.

    What about this (thanks!): Acer Aspire V3-771

    Would the I3 do the job at £50 less?

    Try here I got a Samsung Series 5 from them and its perfect. You can also search by operating system. There's plenty of Windows 7 laptops on their website.

    Might not be able to deliver quick enough though for you.

    And I've tried Windows 8 and I have found it to be very frustrating definitely stick with Windows 7 Pro.
