Hey folks,

My Sony VAIO laptop died a while ago and I've been meaning to replace it, but only just now have I had any money at all. I liked the VAIO considering it was a bargain basement model, but as noted the support was awful.

Now I want a new laptop, but I've recently started learning programming and want to give Linux a spin. I game now and then, but am quite happy to stick to older stuff, so umph isn't a huge consideration. What I want is something solid and reliable.

Only real problem is I'm in the UK, and ideally I don't want to spend more than £400, £500 maybe. I know that's limiting but I figure that since my demands aren't high an older model may be an option. Any thoughts?
