| Super Moderator | LaptopMy laptop currently has a limited life span - not sure if its weeks days or hours at the moment :/ The screen keeps flickering, dodgy connection, the case is cracked and it has suddenly started to seriously overheat. If anyone could suggest me a good new laptop I'd be grateful - I use it for surfing the web, and various website design / Photoshop activities. I have a limited budget so the cheaper the better Also if you know of any good ways to earn online, please share (I'm able to design websites for people but with dodgy laptop i cant rely on this to earn money so need something else as a backup plan Look forward to hearing your suggestions and methods etc etc...

| What to put... | Have you tried opening it up and clearing it of dust, may help the overheat problem and flickering screen (maybe!) If you want to use it for photoshop and web design then i would suggest a multi tasking processor and high memory, it may be worth buying a laptop cheaper and upgrading memory manually.

| What to put... | If it's cracked then there's not much you can do about that, if the crack doesn't go through and connections then it should theoretically be fine though.

![]() | If you like a laptop that can actually perform tasks like photoshop competently and doesn't cost the earth jump on ebay and grab a dell precision m90. Not the most beautiful machine on the planet but they go for peanuts compared to their quality/ability |
