I'm in my third year at college and i'm starting to get ready to go to uni, but i've got an incredibly old computer and i'm wanting to get a laptop to use for my course next year but the problem is that i don't have very much money so i can't spend too much.

I've found a website www.ukstudentlaptops.com which has the kind of prices i can afford but i don't know if it's trustworthy, can anyone let me know if it is or alternatively does anyone know any reliable sites like this.

Thanks for the help :)

    Personally I wouldn't touch them - the contact number appears to be a mobile number and all the laptops look too cheap to be true - actually they all appear to be old/really low spec models.

    Try dabs.com instead.

    I got through university relatively recently without a laptop, with a desktop computer that I got second hand off a friend for £20. I'm still typing on it right now.

    Why do you need a brand new laptop?

    I'd leave it nearer the time - youll probably be able to get something higher spec than you can now with the same money.

    And that's because there'll be better spec laptops on the market :)
