A friend of mine is after a new laptop but wants XP rather than Vista - my usual port of call now only stocks Vista laptops so need to look elsewhere for him...

Anyone have any recommendations for online laptop shops?

Dell gives you the option to have XP rather than Vista.

See Here.

Now go away and wash your mouth out, and tell me it wasn't a Packard Bell Wink

Ebuyer.com have a good range of laptops, from very cheap to "I only wanted a laptop, not the company" prices.
I have used them on more than one occasion and they have never let me down. And delivery is quick.
Also saw an advert for Laptops Direct on the M40 earlier today. Not tried them personally, but the website looks interesting.

Morgan Computers is always worth a look, I've bought three XP laptops from there, not the bargains they used to be but still cheaper than most. (Not that it would be difficult to be cheaper than PCWorld)
