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

although it is the
LX.PSV02.033 and not the
LX.PSV02.002

If it was for me then yes no problem, unfortunately when they fall off the back of a lorry they dont come with a warranty lol.
