DSC post request..from my DAD ("you seem to have all sorts of mates on that ducati web thingy??! "

)

I know a few of you guys are consideraaaaablaaayyy more clued up about IT than me (not difficult tbh!)

My ickle sister is after a cheap 2nd hand lap top for xmas (budget of about £200) and wondered, ebay aside, any good ideas where the old man can go ??

It needs to have windows 2000 or XP for her Ipod, and a DVD drive, and a decent sized hard drive and USB ports.

Any advice appreciated folks !!

Cheers
Nat

Just heard about this if you haven't go one yet...

Staples have another run of their £399 bargain laptop.
The spec is:

IBM Thinkpad R50e
a.. Intel Celeron M Processor 360
(1.4GHz, 400Mhz FSB, 1MB L2 Cache)
b.. 256 Mb Memory
c.. 40GB Hard Drive
d.. DVD RW ±R /+/-RW
e.. Wifi enabled Integrated Intel Pro Wireless 2200 b/g Wireless LAN
f.. 15" TFT display
g.. Microsoft XP Home
h.. 1 year warranty

Sounds like a bargain for that spec.
