My brother has asked me to recommend a laptop for up to £500.
Principally music and light duty stuff, no hard core gaming.
He survives by using his phone right now.
He's basically competent on front of a PC but fighting with things that don't work as expected will entail me spending lots of time on the phone solving problems without being able to see the screen.
So I was looking for something flexible and found the ASUS TAICHI21-CW011H[^] but it's a bit expensive.
Anyone know of anything similar in the right price bracket?
Thanks,
M

Lenovo do a fair range at a good price.
Keyboards a bit 'Thin' if you know what I mean, but a nice enough machine for the price.

What other phone?

I'm guessing it starts with an "i".

I'm not worried about the big ones the Brown Recluse[^] is my biggest fear, although not aggressive it's bite is particularly nasty.
