lol, the stuff I had 5 years ago by todays standards was crap, and that was top of the range £1.5k's worth of PC.
My Dad has just got a new Sony VIO laptop this afternoon......not sure why as he's already got a Toshiba one and a desktop PC which he doesn't use...but what the hell, it means I can buy the old gear cheap off him 😃
This laptop was £700, and is same spec as any 5 month old high end desktop, the turnaround of hardware is rediculous.
