Well im sure you cant find a great one that will work that fast for that little. Maybe higher your price to like 700 pounds and im sure you can find something really nice.

I have found this site, You must login or register to view this content.. Basically things go for really cheap, but you have to bid! For instance I got an iphone 3G for £64, but as per usual theres catch! Everytime you bid it costs you 50p. So for example the bidding started at 10p and everytime somebody bids the price rises 2p so for instance if it started 10p and I put the first bid in, the total would rise to 12p, now heres were they make there money, so I have now put in my bid but for that they will charge me 50p. So in the end if the product is sold to me for 16p, it would be 16p for the product and £1.00 for the two times I have put my bid in. so the total would be £1.16, also your standard P&P rates. Any questions dont hesitate to message me, peace out.

For £400 any of the 2 laptops above would be fine. I would recommend downgrading (or upgrading in my eyes) to XP rather then Vista. Vista is a terrible memory draining bag of crap!

If you're comparing laptops, don't get too sucked into to "higher numbers are better", but look at how much mhz things run at. It's greating having 4gigs of ram, but if it can only process things slowly it's just like having a massive car with a small engine.

If you find any you'd like to compare, I'd be glad to look through them and advise you on which I would think is best.
