Thanks nandbytes for all your help. Its a tough job trying to find a good computer on a budget.

So I've been searching on here looking for other options. I was wondering about the current macbook air, would it be up to basic editing of photos and whats the screen quality like on those. i would prefer a laptop rather than a desktop. Never looked at macs before so a bit out of my depth...

thanks nandbytes for your help. Looks like i may look elsewhere.

Thanks guys for all your help. My main concern is of the quality of the screen as I'm having real trouble working with any certainty on my current laptop. Does anyone have any experience with this one and have any positive or negative feedback. Don't want to spend the money and find I'm still...

Thanks for your help. Its definitely given me something to think about.

Yeah you are probably right there. I did like the one i posted. mainly i wasnt sure if the screen would be of a high enough quality. Or if it could be calibrated.

I would prefer to buy new just because my knowledge of computers is quite poor. i haven't really set my mind on any specific screen size yet, just at the stage of looking about. But as i say i dont know much about computers and screens.

So you think the Canon menus are a bit more user friendly for a beginner

The problem I find when I go in and look at cameras is that I don't really know what I'm looking for. Because I'm only starting out none of the menus mean to much to me yet.

Yea that would probably be the best thing. The only place near me though is Currys and they didn't have much selection last time I was in.

I will probably be taking mostly landscape photos. Also as I live on the north coast of Northern Ireland I would like to have a go at star photography and the northern lights. As far as lenses go. I was planning on going with the kit lens to start with. So far I haven't even been able to...
