Budget is £400 (but would go to £450 for a good deal) so an i3 looks more likely. Is an i5 worth the extra?
Usage will be mainly be Internet, iTunes, Office etc. Nothing too taxing but I do want to be able to run Photoshop. Must have minimum 500gb hd and I'd like at least 4gb RAM.
Are you intending it as your main computer using photoshop for photo editing?
Only asking because the screen will be less than ideal especially if you intend printing too, might end up with some unexpected results
Did see a Toshiba i5 laptop, 6gb Ram and 640GB HD on the black friday Amazon thing, down from six hundred to four fifty, looked pretty decent to me and bound to be repeated
