Hi myBB smart peeps.
Need to buy my mom a laptop.
She has a limited budget +- 5000
Laptop does not need to have dedicated graphics.
Anybody know of any bargains somewhere? Thanks

There's this special from Makro, keep in mind that you still need a bag for the laptop.

What does she want to do with it? If she's not going to do any gaming or other graphics intensive tasks, why not just get her a netbook for much cheaper?

Thanks nom. The makro deal looks good. She doesnt play games lol or any graphics intensive tasks. Mostly just word, excel etc. But for some reason she is fussy about screen size. Minimum 15 inch

Well, you get netbooks with bigger screens. I got a Samsung RV510 netbook with a 15" screen for R3300 earlier this year.
