Been looking for a laptop and this seems like a pretty decent deal.
Coupled with Amex cashback and 1.5% fastrack collection, it will come to around £285.50.
Seems like the cheapest i3 processor with 8Gb RAM and 2TB HDD out there at the moment.
The ultra-slim L50-C is designed for big entertainment – with Skullcandy speakers tuned by DTS Sound and a 39.6 cm (15.6inch) HD display. Crystal clear HD screen and 2TB of storage. Can be upgraded to Windows 10 for free.
The satellite l50 is the perfect all rounder, with a thin and light chassis, crystal clear hd screen and a huge 2tb of storage for all your media files.
The l50-c has a dedicated cortana button, to allow you to instantly access microsoft's new personal assistant.

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to computers but I can obviously see there's a TB more hard drive space in this one. Is it worth getting a refund on the old one and getting this instead?

Yours is faster so I'd keep it :smiley:
the CPU is similar, but the GPU of your AMD laptop is better :smiley:
