New laptop

[stranded]

I want a new boat laptop that will enable me to update Navionics cards. Not worried about much else - praps keep some music on it - except it should be cheap.

Any reason this won’t do: Inspiron 14 (Intel) Laptop: Inspiron Laptop Computers | Dell UK

?

Looks like a bargain with such a large SSD at 1Tb.
I have something very similar that was a £100 or so more a few months ago and very pleased so far.

Cheers Dunedin - ordered one of those then.

I can't see a single downside to this laptop in terms of spec, it's excellent for the money and doesn't appear to have cheaped out anywhere.
These hinge mechanisms haven't been universally loved as they can make the device rock back and forth while typing, but it does raise the keyboard making it easier to type on than a flat keyboard. At this price I wouldn't be concerned by that at all.
