well just spent shed loads on a new pc : but I need to show people my web site and so on.... but only just starting out so funds are tight:

the loo sounds good at least I would get some peace in there:

I was looking at a few in the cash converters down town.... 3 months ticket on them, however you would not know where they have some from and what could be on them:
anyone used them ?

Does anyone actually find that place cheap, I always think the stuff looks expensive for 2nd hand goods.

the price for a lap top was £200 : Lancs Dave no I don't think they are that cheap, having said that sometime they have a few bargains in: not bad on the price of tools and they have some DVD's:

They are very expensive in cash converters, plus he specs on them are very basic so cant be sure of what u are getting, the laptops i saw in there was quite expensive as mick says u can get a new one with guarentee for a bit xtra on the price.

Magpie, why do you need teh net to show them your website? You should have a copy of it on your PC locally. just use that to show them.

The other point is that just cause the laptop is wireless you still need some form of internet access point within ~100m.

I'll keep my ears open for anyone at work selling one for you.

I think you need to look into how you will connect to the net when you are out and about working.
Is there a wireless hotspot where you will be working?
Are you going to connect through your mobile phone? (you might need your own personal oil well to pay the phone bill if you do depending on your phone contract)

If you want to show the website to people who have PCs can't you just log into it from their PC - or is there something I'm missing?

I think they want to show it to the market traders whilst down there hence my comment about just running the site locally on the laptop

magpie 15-02-2007 11:48

Re: lap top note book wanted
 
ah yes:

well I need to show market traders and so on their ads on my site:

( don't need the net for that)

plus I work away from home so it would be handy:


should have said what I wanted it for: one of those day's weeks then again month:
