For a few more £ you can get a 'proper' laptop
If you want that type of spec I'd be tempted to source out the $100 laptop's where you have to buy 2 ($200) and the other goes to a 3rd world user (no, not Scotland

but Africa or S.America)

I was looking at it because of its size.

I hope it is a big one and not a small one.
I have a small laptop and I find it very hard to use and so I am thinking of getting one with a larger keypad.
Mine is a Toshiba and I have had a few problems with it and it had to be returned for a new motherboard after only a couple of months.
Next time I will get a Dell.

Bludall ias looking for a small one.
What you should do with yours, UHM, is get an couple of external keyboards - leave one at your place, leave one at Angies and then you can just use a full size keyboard

I tried that with a USB mouse as I hate keypads and it drains the batteries much faster and so I need to plug it in and I can't because of killer bunny. It managed to bite the laptop cable once and it was a millisecond and the little blighter bit right through the cable. Good job it wasn't the mains voltage side!
