    there is a big spec difference of course, but if you look at what you would be using it for - do you NEED to spend £400 extra for the few extra features? hmm

    it was a linux machine so after playing with that and i tried to install windows on it to see if it would, which didnt quite work (ultimately bios issues) - i then gave it up as i was working abroad and needed something more powerful so bought a "ferrari" laptop (no really!) - otherwise as a machine it was fine for notes/browsing etc...
