Second Question
We already have the home computer with the internet how do we get the internet on the Laptop without having to suscribe again?
Somebody mentioned a router
Are these expensive and will computer dunce me be able to set it up?

Sounds good, although I am no fan of Vista, but I have it on my laptop and have never had a problem.
If this is a new laptop, then it should be wireless enabled, check for this. If it is, then as long as your router has wireless access you should have no problem, you just have to enable the laptop's wireless internet. But check first that the laptop is wireless, if not, then you have to buy a dongle that fits into your laptop usb.

That sounds rude
How do i find out if its wireless?

Have you bought it yet? if so it should say so on the blurb. If not then ask the shop, internet. It should say so on the box though.
Be careful if it is internet buy because it might not be that up to date. Although processor is good duel core etc etc.
If it is internet post the link and I will have a look ok?

My Parents bought it at Tesco This morning for my daughter for college.

Well yes it is wireless enabled. Need any more help just let me know. Sounds ok I have seen this one for £400 quid did you get it cheaper?

£399 plus double clubcard points which will eventually take another £8 off that price.
Thanks for your help, so I won't need a dongle thingy then just buy a wireless enabled router.
She is not getting this till Christmas so listen for us shouting help then

You got it
What network are you with for your internet? Some will send you a wireless router free.

I'm with Orange

Might be worth giving them a call and see if you can get a wireless router upgrad, they may do it for nothing or you might be able to get a better deal from them. give them a call. Are you on the home start package? if so then according to their website you will already have a wireless router.
