just try misco or novatech, probably best sites for what you are looking for, bit over your budget but misco have iiyama 24" full hd monitor for £175 looks amazing, if not probably the dell ultrsharps although they are probably over your budget

it could be to do with a number of things, try flashing the bios, i'll find some instructions on how to do it for you. it could also be the graphics card or the motherboard not receiving power, dell's use the led codes over POST codes mainly, if all else fails probably time to ring dell

i checked them out online, and they seem really good for the money, there built as a more business pc rather than home use, but it does mean they will take a bit more of a beating, the graphics card is also a good one for a laptop, overall i would say yes that is a very good laptop for the...

ooh where was that from?

i would personally build my own, but i know this can be a daunting task for someone who is just an end user, i would in that case definately stick with dell, if your not so worried about running big multiple programs i would save some money on the processor and put it into extra RAM and a better...

i would go for the nc10 definately, the netbooks at the minute are all basically the same, mainly because there isnt that much different hardware around, if you can wait i would possibly wait for the new dual core atom processors. the current atoms are alright, but you start opening 2-3 word...

http://www.misco.co.uk/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=342273&Sku=152703 little bit over your price range but looks like a brilliant laptop, will also take another 2gb of RAM and with a 250gb hard drive you can really go wrong i'll see if i can see any others closer to the £300...

i'll have a look round, two minutes oh and also 2gb ram isnt a necessity RAM upgrades even in laptops are a two minute job, so you can always upgrade at a later date

anyone?

cheers for the info, anyone got any info on lenses re; origional question ha ha dont want to get done for off topic posts :p

yeah they look alright, would like a speedlight, but cant afford them =( might check dale photographics second hands

thats what im thinking, i have an olympus om10 and i love the feel of it, its so solid, i reckon that the d1x which is a pro slr must be pretty similar, and yeah if i spend a bit more on lenses i can keep them for future upgrades

I'm currently using a pentax k100d which i bought second hand from dale photographic in leeds, while this has suited me fine, every now and then i find myself needing more from a camera, but as photography is only a hobby i see my money going else where :shake: so recently i have been looking at...

sorry meant nikon d1h or d1x whichever. i really have no idea if these are worth buying, i just assumed that buying an old pro slr camera must be around as good as a current mid level camera, but much cheaper?
