So the wife spilt her coffee over her laptop which was an hp 250 G5. I pulled it apart but it was soaked so its no good. Managed to save her hard drive though.
I was told that was a good computer a couple of years ago but when I have went to repair it I've found that the keyboard is riveted to the inside of the damn thing so you have to use wire cutters to get it off. Way to make your laptops unrepairable HP. Disgrace.
I told you that becaue I will never get an HP again so they're out of consideration.
So cut to the chase. It has to have a nice screen, black casing, no snazzy bits needed here. That's the wifes requirements at any rate. For me it needs to have decent ish cpu and memory and not be over 500 quid.
I can put my own SD drive into it btw.
I'd appreciate any comments on brand, middle of the road cpu and any other things you may bare relevant. I can't make the same mistake as the last one i bought!
Thanks.
