I am now the proud owner of a very nice new (second hand) laptop - my old one is slowly failing after having had various bits replaced over the years.
It's 3 years old, looks like new and everything works and a good bargain - very pleased
I do spend too much time trying to find a good second hand laptop on ebay when we need one, but there are good finds to be had. I shall be tinkering a bit upgrading it for a while now.
