    Looking for a new laptop £400/£500


    I am helping to find a new laptop for a family member to buy who has a budget of £400/£500.
    So obviously buying in UK.

    The machine would be for general use mainly but could do more if asked.

    When I did my research before I bought mine I found Toshiba & Asus were most recommended.

    I found this
    Buy Toshiba Satellite C855-2EU Laptop, Intel Core i5, 2.6GHz, 8GB RAM, 750GB, 15.6", Silver online at JohnLewis.com

    and this
    Asus Notebooks - Multimedia Entertainment - Asus K55VD-SX494H Laptop - Asus Laptop - UK Best Deal Sale Laptops Buy Notebook Computer Discount UK - Buy On-Line Laptops and Accessories for Business and Home

    Anyone own one of these or could advise?
    Thanks in advance.

    I much prefer the Asus to the Toshiba.

    Asus have better build quality and support.

    Infact, I have that same Asus laptop, but with 4gb ram, and 500 Gb hdd.

    It's been fine for me.

    I use it vising client sites (businesses) to set up and install network equiptment.

    Hope this helps.
