What notebook?

[jeraldo]

I have an excellent Sony Vaio AR series notebook and my sister wants something similar. Needs to be under �800 if poss with 2-4 Gb memory, TV card, prob Vista home premium. She uses it mainly for email, photos and basic stuff so nothing flashy in the game world needed. 17in screen would be good.

Any suggestions/recommendations?

If she doesn't need a tv card, this will do the job for �390

Or this 18" , 4gb blu ray, with tv tuner for �780

But really anything over �450 is over the top for the things your sister wants to do. My 10 year old desktop still manages to email, edit photos, browse the internet...
