Only urgent coz I have the money, but...... my Laptop is about to go (RIP) and need another one; a more moderner quicker one etc. Do I go for a Laptop, IPad, or Notebook etc? Also would like a dvd/cd player for FM2017 etc (or can I transfer FM2017 without a Disc?

Also I have a Laptop tray on my lap on an evening so I can sit with my Dad and while he is watching telly I can listen to music, watch something else on Amazon/Netflix etc (with headphones) etc on said Laptop.

Those are my basic requirements

Where do you put your 16" greasy pizza and kebab if the laptop is on your lap?

Depends on budget.

Do you need a fizzy drink holder an all?

There is a guide on how to make laptop holders from takeaway boxes....

I had a quick look on Amazon Prime and they seem to be £200 to £250, which maybe refurbished? Have about available £400 at the mo. Was willing to save some more, and wait, but I think this one won't last too long (am slightly frightened it will explode or catch fire through the night!)

Does rip in this instance stand for rest in pizza

Lenovo are decent, under £300, had 1 for work and bought one for home.

There is one in the laptop tray, obviously!




I have had only 1 takeaway in the last 3 weeks (hence can afford a new Laptop) which ironically was a Pizza!

Cheers Mr Butt that was one of the makes on Amazon Prime. I hadn't heard of them!

I am staggered that you didnt PM me Bishop to assist here.

Staggered

Tesco had them for 270 recently and comet were roughly the same.

Do they have a CD/DVD in them? Just for FM2017 and the odd CD/DVD? Does it have Windows etc?

Yes, go on currys website and view them, more than shake a stick at, just view the 15inch screen ones.
check details for what is included.

One is awaiting learned advice from Mr Colonel!

Thanks Mr Butt Will do after tea.

Phffff.

I dont do seconds. I could have helped you with near professional advice, but you chose amateurs.

Very disappointed in you.

How recently did you do this price check in Comet?

yeah, meant Currys

Sell them in Tandys

Put the £400 on Plymouth tomorrow at evens and get yourself a Macbook.

Jesus wept. He wants a computer not a bloody book.

Lenovo used to be IBM Thinkpad before they were rebranded. They're a good solid make.

And you would know...

That was a really bad typo!!

Just ordered a Lenovo 15.6" in a Bundle with a bag and other stuff inc free screen wipes, £280. Touch wood, coming tomorrow or within a few days.

Hope you've got something for the keyboard. .

Free screen wipes, will you be on xhamster?

What?

Thanks for the advice all..As for this thread re-reading it I just keep wanting to say OOH ERRRRR Missus!!!!!

On a slightly different note, apart form being old and knackered, is there another reason this Lap Top keeps switching itself off? Weirdly on the last 2 occasions during the 2nd half of the FA Cup 1st qualifying round!!!!! Frustrating as on both occasions I've been ahead!

Have you tried putting it on a laptop stand sounds like its overheating

Thanks Mr Townendsfaithful, the fan seems to be on a lot; when I use some things, even more. I think its on its last legs (the laptop and I'm not a CPU expert). Thanks carry on the help.

Get the hoover on it and try to remove the dust that's blocking the fan.
