    Hi All,

    I was wondering if you could help me out as I'm in no way tech savy when it somes to laptops.

    I need to get a new laptop. It would be for general use as I'm back in college part time after work. I would also be using it for films and general multi media usage etc. Gaming wise, I haven't played a game on a laptop in years but do like the strategy games so I might start using it for that when I'm travelling.

    Some people rave abouyt the mac books but if I'm spending that much money, are they worth it? My budget is anything up to 1,300 euros and I doubt I'll be needing a screen bigger than 15 inches.

    Any help would greatful.

    Thanks,
    Z

    Have a look at the new PCS Vortex IV LE... Full HD display, SoundBlaster X-Fi, Onkyo speakers, the latest Haswell processor and the GPU will play pretty much anything you throw at it. €1,254 in the following configuration:

    If you already have an operating system, you can order w/o Windows and save €95. It supports up to 32 GB RAM and has a 2nd HDD bay if you want to upgrade it later.

    P.S. Anything from Apple close to this performance will cost you twice as much. ;)
