Shorty Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Actually for the first time I would agree with Schpick. Especially if you don't care for games, apple could be the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadKill Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Go with the AMD. The other two had 256MB of RAM which is totally lame. The battery life would be better with a Pentium M most likely but still, out of those, the AMD is the best choice. Only £525 as well. As for the iBook, £699 is a way too high starting price for their base laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raining_again Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Go with the AMD. The other two had 256MB of RAM which is totally lame. totally agree, i had to upgrade my ram! (2.8ghz celeron with 256mb ram 40gb harddisk, shared graphics) It wasnt great but liveable, but then i started using the internet and it was really slow.

system_error Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 I am quite happy with my Fujitsu Siemens notebook (support is really great even though nothing yet was broken - I only had to exchance the battery due to a error). For your requirements I would go with a Pentium-M notebook - Centrino (all Intel chipsets). Powerfull architecture but low power consumation and WLAN works perfectly. My Centrino from Siemens is a 1.8GHz Pentium-M, 60GB hdd, mobile Radeon 9700, 1GB RAM, etc. and it cost me 1280 € a few months back. So if you don't need it for gaming you get a decent laptop for 1000€ or less (15.4" widescreen) and it needs less power than a normal lightbulb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
