Which one of these laptops ??

AntDub

Hi all,

A mate of mine has asked me to try and get a laptop through work for him, his budget is €430 max but want's to pay as little as possible... as anyone would.

He's only going to be using it to go online and want's to install Microsoft Office on it.

I don't know much about laptops so I'm hoping someone in here can guide me towards a few that are decent enough and also which ones to keep away from.

Any help is appreciated.

The Fujitsu with the 4th gen i5 seems a good deal.

No, includes vat, that the price he'll be paying. It's going through the books as a staff sale so vat has to be paid.
I still haven't bought it yet, still deciding which one to buy, I take it then it's a good laptop for the price?

This one seems pretty damn tight.

Otherwise, any of the Intel i5 machines that you listed.
