I am 14 years old starting my GCSE’s, need a PC, preferably a laptop.

I am experienced with computers so please don’t hesitate with detailed answers.

2.16Ghz processor or faster
3/4 gb ram
160Gb or higher hard drive
WINDOWS 7 looks brilliant << essential (i dont mind whether it is ultimate, home prem... or pro..)
Popular brand - NOT fujistu, E machines, advent, compaq...etc
something like sony, hp, tosh., (dell)?, acer...
DECENT wireless adapter
DECENT graphics card - ati/ nvidia (not intel graphics)
An FAST reliable intel processor, i am not happy with some AMD's
something like dual core or core 2 duo

Thats about it. i know its a lot to ask for, but ive looked online a LOT (pc world currys dixons) and some price comparison sites which are a bit crap.

My budgets around £420 - £440 MAX.

I am looking for experts advice not some 16 year old weirdo, so please list sources. Advice on whether to wait till xmas / january sales, its kinda urgent.

if possible some good comparison sites aswel.

I WOULD BE SOO PLEASED WITH A FINAL ANSWER, IVE COME ACROSS SOME ALREADY BUT THEY LACK 1 OR 2 FEATURES.
OKAY, Ive decided it got to be a desktop. do you recommend building a pc. i have a relative who is experienced with this. is it cheaper to build or buy?

I REALLY want the Firewire (800) ports, and I know that the Apple iMac has them, but does the HP Pavilion d5000t have them? On HP’s website, it says it has IEEE 1394, isn’t that the same as Firewire (800) ports?

Here is a link to the Apple iMac 20″ (The 1st option, 2.4 GHz):

AND,

Here is a link to the HP Pavilion d5000t Series Desktop:

Also, does the Pavilion not come with speakers, (external or internal)? You really have to buy them seperately?

From comparisons and price comparisons, the Pavilion looks like the definite choice to go with. I need to know if the Pavilion has Firewire (800) ports and how it is on crashing (does it crash alot?) and how susceptible it is to virus’s.

THANKS A LOT!

Looking for a laptop for my son for college. Wondering if price differential is attributed to battery life. He and I both like the HP and Lenovo keyboards over Acer & Gateway. Looking for other key distinctions.

In general which one is better? Are there any signifigant advantages with one over the other? What are the differences in price and performance?
The Centrino Duo processor is build on the Santa Rosa Platform. Will this make any difference?

All right guys, this is gonna be a toughie question to answer. I’m looking at the sony website, at the fz custmozible laptop models. If you configure each of them to
Processor- 2.0ghz
OS- vista home pre.
Mem- 2 gb
HD- 120 gb (or lowest config.)
Optical disc drive - lowest config.
Screen- lowest config.
Battery- lowest config.

You’ll see that the VGN-FZ290 model is SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than the other two (by about $140ish or 200ish)… and yet they are at the same configurations, give or take a few trivial minor changes… Can anyone tech savvy figure out what the $100+ difference is? thanks!
