don't install norton! at best, it will drag the machine down and make it too slow for intensive tasks such as editing video.. at worst, it will break everything and cut you off from the internet, etc..Mrs M said:Thanks for the advice shoes. He is only 12 but is taking his film making very seriously and I want to encourage that as much as possible. After a lot of shopping around I came across this HP DV6-1215SA in PC World. I managed to get it with NAV, Microsoft Office,a bag that was £35 and an upgrade to Windows 7 all for £485. I'm hoping it will be just what he needs.
I'm glad you said that as it has taken me ages and given me massive headaches trying to choose one.shoes said:100% agree with DB there!
That laptop looks good, video editing will be slow at render stage (when isn't it?) but should be more than usable when editing videos in premiere elements / windows movie maker / vegas etc. (video software).
I know a thing or two about video editing and appropriate software so if you want any advice on which to get or how to use the one you have chosen then just ask.
Seems like you got a good deal all in all!
