What is the best laptop for university tasks (microsoft office, internet etc) that i can buy for around 拢400 ?bmw

for 拢400, options very limited

dell inspirion 1300

http://configure.euro.dell.com/dellstore...

base model staarts approx 拢400

very basic model, with basic features %26 no gaming please

reason i chose dell is that they're so freely configurable, allows u to pick and choose %26 then if need be compare with other brands

the only change i'd recommend is change processor from celerom m to pentium m

%26gt; can do much more %26 greatly increses the utility value of the notebook, all for an extra 拢 24

%26lt;buy an asset, not a liability%26gt;

so u end up paying 拢424
