UK computer reviews and recommendations for pcs, laptops, desktops, hardware and software providers.

 The dual core processor and large 2GB of memory will allow multi tasking in windows and office applications with little effect on performance. The large 17 inch screen is perfect to go with the Nvidia Geforce graphics card to produce excellent image quality for video viewing.

The 1720 is also ideal for photo editing and with the large 240GB hard drive there is loads of storage space for music, photos and video. This laptop is capable of playing games but not at a very high detail and will not last long as a gaming machine for the future.

If you want an all rounder multimedia and office application machine then this is a very good choice for an excellent price. If you want to spend a little more we recommend upgrading the processor.
