sorry for this but I ‘ve been out of the computer market for a while.

must have:
HDMI output
Decent image processing capabilities (handling RAW images)
SD card slot (not necessary but helpful)
full sized (15in+) screen
good battery life

Budget <£300
All makes and models considered so long as they have a good review.

bar the HDMI input which do you REALLY need?

thanks for that but i do want HDMI.

i went in thinking i only want to spend 3, 350 tops, I spent £450 on a Vaio…

Be prepared to spend a little more…

the screen resolution of that toshiba is a bit low for image editing, unless you have an external monitor you’ll be using for that.

That Asus looks good but I saw one in currys that was a 1.6Ghz processor with pretty much the same spec for £270
