Her money.. her choice lol. i told her its overkill, but she just wants the best she can get so it lasts longer.. tbh shes tempted on the 2nd option, is anybody able to find a similar lappy cheaper? or better specs within £150 of it?.. im just trying to help cause she will spend £1k on something worth £500... Problem is.. i'm confusing myself now! LOL

Tell her to get a cheap one and spend the rest on a good spade, or a rake... or whatever it is you enjoy.

Stay away from Samsung. Seriously.

We use them at work for some unknown reason. We have the basic cheap ones and the RF712's for our higher performance users. They break easily and we have all sorts of problems with them, really poor. Only time I'd reccomend Samsung is if someone want's a cheap basic laptop for about £280-300 - Because then you get what you pay for.

I can reccomend Lenovo though. Quality build, last for years but they don't look as stylish and can cost a little extra
