and look at their 'Budget Friendly Laptops under £300'
a Compaq mini (10.1" screen ) is £219.98 - you'll be hard pushed to find a 13" at the price you want.
Also, be VERY careful that it's got the programmes on you want - basic computers/laptops have very little in the way of software on them.

For this price would imagine you are going to need to make some compromises - have you worked out minimum requirements?
Have you thought about second-hand from local computer shop - might get more for your money & can take back if doesn't do what it should.
Dell online outlet store used to have customer returns on it but that was some time ago.

It was this www.software4students.co.uk but I think they may just offer discounted software.

I got a second hand one from a small shop in the town near us. a reconditioned IBM from some office which had upgraded. Great though and perfectly good enough for me. Nice and new is all very well but it doesn't last and if it saves a couple of hundred quid then why not?
