    and you want £200 for it? Hmm ok.

    You can pick up a brand new web book with much better spec for £250 from Argos let alone shopping around.

    webbook is not really a laptop is it, its more like a gameboy it has its uses but at the end of the day a gameboy is a gameboy and i believe its the same for webbooks, you might as well just get an iphone it does it all!
    There cheap for a reason, they have like a 7" monitior and all have cheap components.

    What are you talking about?

    A web book is a fully functional laptop. It has an OS (usually Windows XP but I've often seen them with Vista - my friend is running Windows 7 on his), they have a large hard drive providing you chose the right ones. It's just small and because of this they are cheap. The same quality of components go in most other laptops so IMO you are completely wrong and a 4 year old laptop isn't worth £200 when you can get a full size brand new one for £350.

    go on then smartie go have a look at the spec of a 300 quid laptop, unless its on a special offer that is.
    i bet you, it will be single core pentium d, also known as a celeron. So it will be slow and unreliable!

    Yeah but u havent seen how good condition this laptop is in. Litrally its a desk bound machine. Perfect condition, like a new machine!
