Laptop for under R7000

[NielJoubert]

I am looking for a laptop below R 7000.00. Preferably less, but thats the max o can spend.

Here are my "restrictions":
- No Netbooks please
- No Celeron Processor
- 2Ghz or faster dual processors
- 2Gb or more RAM
- Screen size must be bigger than 15", preferably wide screen HD.
- Must have a keypad on the keyboard
- Card reader
- HMDI port
- Windows 7 would help...
- Get it from a shop/dealer that I can go to if something goes wrong with it.

I am browsing around, but would like some input/suggestions from the forum.

Thanks

Thanks!

What do I have to do to return the laptop if something goes wrong under warranty?

There are a few good prices on the site, will have to browse around a bit...

Sorry for delayed reply.

Just contact us, we put you in direct contact with the warranty repair center.

I saw most of the laptop has a 1 Year carry in warranty, could this be extended in some way?

 

[PC Direct]

Yes, you can get an extension up to 3 years.

You must purchase this 30 days after ordering your laptop to become into effect.
