They're all the same spec so I'd go for the red HP cos the white MSI is going to look grubby real soon.

1 for each? no way! and 7 is too young One to share. I have an unopened IPad, rrp £429 that's yours for £300 if you want it. Would need to let me know asap http://www.apple.com/ipad/thanks for the offer but same problem not going to spend £300 on them each Are they no good at sharing? yes they are very good at sharing but the eldest could do with one for school work. to share with one is ok but three they will never get a go we have ps3 and wii they play each other and play well cant do that on laptop |

Has any computer bought for a child ever been used for school work?

Has done in our house too. Even the neighbours call to use it for their homework. If money is tight, saving up and buying one with decent specs just seems the safer option. They might not need it much now, but at least yer not screwed in another year or so when you've no choice but to buy one for school work. |

I was just amused by the school work thing as when I was young everyone got PCs "to do school work on" and people spent £100s ensuring they had encarta or some bollocks and everyone just used them to play Duke Nukem and Syndicate. I guess times have changed  |
