    The relatively dim screen?

    http://www.ebuyer.com/search?page=1&...CIntel+Core+i7

    Have a look at the list from the beginningm, but they won't be the latest 3rd gen i5.

    or look at this one http://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/Lenov...UK/version.asp

    The link got outdated..... basically http://www.ebuyer.com/search?page=1&...CIntel+Core+i7

    have a look through the i5s on ebuyer, the ones you should be looking at are Sony, Toshiba, Lenovo, Asus and Samsung, maybe HP.

    And look at that other Lenovo I suggested nearly same spec but a different model which should bypass the dim light issue.

    2011 13" Macbook Air from ebay. I think you can get one for around that if you bid.

    Why don't you just buy a small laptop, unless you need a bigger one.

    The End :P
