Hi,
My old Dell Inspiron is coming to the end of it's life, I mostly use a desktop 
system so I don't need an all dancing notebook. I want a small/cheap 
computer, for presentations at meetings and the occasional use away from 
home.
I can get a Dell Inspiron Mini 12 for £380 which comes shipped with Ubuntu.
I can get a Novatech "no name" E15 Pro for £332 with no OS.
The Dell is about the right size, the Novatech is probably larger than I want. 
I can also go for one of the many netbooks too (~ £250), though mostly they 
come with the Windows Tax.
I know some people get second hand units, what can be bought for under £300? 
Where is reputable? I think the 12" screen format is probably best, so which 
models are okay to buy second hand and are happy running Debian or other 
Linux distros?
Thanks in advance.
