Computers and laptops are much more reliable and powerful than they were so a new a laptop buyer need priortise size of screen, weight and battery life.
If it is going to be used on a desk mainly then battery life and weight don't matter. Get the biggest size screen you can afford.
Any laptop in the £300 range is suitable for a beginner.

For continuous usage you would be re-charging battery every 2 hrs approx on a lappy.

For the price (and considering it's a 17inch screen) this is a bloody good deal at the moment.

I made reference to that laptop in one of my threads.

4gb memory and a 17" screen for £333 - incredible deal and one I cant match anywhere else.

Many Thanks for the confirmation Matt.
