Dont know about 8 but 7 has been in my opinion the best. it took me a little while to fathom it but now i like it.
don't go desk-top because in my opinion they are limited just to the table, i do allot of auctions and i keep all my research on my lap top it goes everywhere with me.
don't buy the latest go for an older model mine is three years old its a I3 CPU 2.40GHZ win 7 Home premium and works like a dream, i do all what you want to do, i chose the widest screen i could get, i have never regretted that at all.
Just my Tuppance worth.

Rob before you bin it try taking the battery out, wait 10 mins and power on again just on the supply (no battery). If you don not get power straight away, hold the power button for up to 15-20s. If it lights up your problem is the battery :-) if not then you know its toast.
This is a problem for machines that get left on the power supply all the time without draining the bat. Worth a try so at least you will know.

Hi Lads
Well the hard drive is OK all data intact , Tried it with the battery out ,still no joy ,oh well at least i now have a handy 500 gig portable drive :med:
Hi Anthony , I had windows 7 pro on the laptop and I liked that , I really need a desk top as I need LOTS of ram , at least 3 gig on the graphics card .
Still not sure about windows 8 ,,,,,,,,,,, :scratch: DONT LIKE THAT METRO THING ,,,,,,,,,,could I just get a new computer and remove the windows 8 out and install 7 ?

Set win8 up in classic mode and its fine. :) i prefer win7pro myself though.

Rob - you can still get computers with Win7 Pro on them. I just got a new Lenovo desktop, terabyte HD, 8-gig ram, separate VGA card - dunno what spec, all for around 400 quid.
That was from Misco.
