There was a computer in there selling with monitor for £400 ok it had a 15ins flat monitor with it but i had seen the desktop on its own for £90

Desktop on its own for £90 quid , where can i find that amazing deal? Im in the same boat as magpie because i need a wireless laptop but very cheap and i cant seem to find one. Someone told me the other day about there being some cheap computers at the old time building but im not sure they do. Can anyone help?

don't go to Time, they are teh rubbish left over.

2nd hand laptops are rare and hold their value as Students will buy pretty much anything that goes.

your best bet is to try and get the £350ish together for a new one with warranty.

Time: hm did they take over from TINY I got ripped off with a pc from TINY
or rather Tough It's Now Yours:

I am looking around the £350 mark: I could use and off line browser to show the sites and so on....

Yeh well someone told me that they where selling computers cheap at the time building but i didnt like tiny really. Ive got a very good computer now which the family bought for over a grand its an all in one computer so the monitor is the computer. Anyway i want a laptop to take around the house and things but dont want to spend so much. Like i saw the advent laptops in pc world for £300 at christmas but i was thinking if you could get one of them second hand then it would be even cheaper.

magpie · 15-02-2007, 21:30

you would have thought if you did not want vista they would be selling off old ( ish) ones cheap: but I am not finding that: I was thinking about DELL but gave up with all the small print: I need a new brain now having tried to read it al:

fc:stanley · 15-02-2007, 22:16

So if anyone knows any sites or any pc points around lancashire to get cheap laptops or maybe cheap desktop pcs please tell me

?

magpie · 15-02-2007, 22:31

I will let you know how I get on ....

There's some in Woollies for about £350 but I don't know how good they are.

A desktop where the monitor is the PC? I've never seen that. It sound very much like a laptop with a separate keyboard. Where do they sell them?

There's a stall on Blackburn market which does reconditioned laptops and a shop which I can't tell you the address of but I know how to get there which sometimes has some very cheap ones but you gets what you pays for.
