    Haven't really decided on a budget yet, I'll likely be being a spares/repair bit of kit and fixing it for about £150, same as I usually do.

    Looking for something with very nice aesthetics and pretty good performance, 1st gen Sandy or above. I'll just be playing minecraft and watching Netflix.

    Pretty set on something from the Dell E-series but open to other suggestions.

    E5420 looked perfect until I found out about the ESD problem.
    E6x20 I really do not like the cosmetic features of.

    The E5x10 series looks like it has both the decent performance and nice aesthetics I like.

    The E6x10 series looks quite nice too.

    Anyone with these particular models got any input?

    Also has Dell released any 17" E-series models?

    Cheers

    Dell has a M6500 M6600 & M6700 precision workstation class laptops. They are all really nice units.
