Ruko,

I bought a Dell Inspiron 9400 last week, more than does the job.

It's otherwise quite decent but i would consider upgrading the memory to 1gb. No idea what they cost in UK but i think u can get another 512mb with €50 max. And the extra memory always helps. A lot.

HD 160 / 200GB SATA
GFX ATI9250 / X700
CPU 3.06 / 3.4
