    Thought your infinate widsdom could save me some hassle:

    where can I look into getting a new laptop that isn't obvious like compustore or dixons. Dell seem to have upped their prices...

    All I want is one for college work - with 98 or XP and a USB port. Keeping it under eu1,200 - prefrably less than that.

    Any small businesses in south Dublin or anywhere around that you'd recommend?

    Makes & models info. also accepted :p

    Thanks in advance.

    Bri.

    PC Peripherals (Stillorgan) usualy have good prices, but I'm not sure if they stock/build laptops ... you could always give them a try though.
    The rest of their contact details are at www.pcp.ie - but ignore the price-list because apparently they no longer update it. :)

    Seems laptops are expensive where ever you go.

    If you want a really cheap one .
    there is a guy on south circular in dublin .
    think he called SCR computers ,they are cheap refurbishments.
    Not going to be state of the art but might do the job for you i got a Compaq Armada 1750 for about £400 last january
