Hi forumites
My mom is looking to buy a new laptop.
Her budget is R6000 max though she if at all possible she would like to keep it as well under as possible.
She does not want a netbook as she says the keyboard and screen are too small for her.
her uses will be mainly business related i.e. multiple excel spread sheets, word documents and web browser tabs and windows open etc.
Here are some laptops that I have found on Landmark. If you know where to get something similar cheaper or know of better models please let me know. The first is an intel HP a bit of a stretch of the budget, but I can bring her around if needs be.

the second and third are both AMD based models. Also HP Both have the same clockspeed, though one is an athlon II the other is a Turion x2. I have no idea how the AMD mobile cpus rate so some help there would be great. Also one comes with 4gb ddr2 the other 2gb ddr3 ram, I'm not sure if capacity over speed would win out here.

Any and all help and advice will be much appreciated.
