i'm right at the point of throwing this crappy computer out the window and i'm going to get either a notebook or a laptop but i'm not sure which.

£500 is my limit i think.

i like a notebook because of its size but a laptop would have more flexibility with music files and downloads etc. but i just pretty much want it to use the internet.

what are your recommendations?

I happen to like my Gateway Platinum MP8708 laptop. It has quite a versatile ability to it, albeit a better sound quality would have been nice. But I use it for video and web site information.

But if all you need is simple, then a net-book or notebook would suffice quite nicely.

I have an asus 901.

cons: you'll have to get an external hard drive for the music if you have a lot as it only comes with 20 gigs.

pros: it's awesome. solid state drive instead of hard drive so 8hr battery life, super-fast performance and you can drop it.

Yeah, but you're 3 inches tall, tops.
