Hi Ho,

Can you please suggest some reputable online websites where one may purchase a laptop from.

Looking for an Acer 5741 (Model: LX.PSV02.002) for my mate, came across a good looking deal on www.laptopsdirect.co.uk (also trading as http://www.acerdirect.co.uk) ...however a quick search of the t'internet reveals them to be rather [sh*t] at delivering the correct laptop and then playing a game of hide and seek when it comes to contacting them via email/phone.

I know of www.dabs.com (aka BT Direct) for £571 inc vat, looking to see if I can get one cheaper elsewhere.

Don't use Acer Direct, bought a laptop for my mate of them, it didn't work. Took ages for them to contact me and ages again to get a refund.

Dabs are fine, also had no problems with microdirect used them quite a few times.

Here is a link to the one you asked about
