Laptop Purchase

Hey, I need help with my laptop purchase but I'm not too knowledgable about computers and their numerous specifications.

I would prefer it to have XP than Vista and the maximum amount of money I'm willing to spend is £300.

It doesn't need to be a great system (obviously I wouldn't get that for £300 anyway) but it needs to be able to run itunes, msn, word and Football Manager.

Football Managers specs are:
  • Minimum – Windows XP/Vista. 1.2GHz Processor. 256MB Ram. DirectX8.1 compatible sound card. 4xCD ROM drive, 1024x768 32Bit display. 750MB HD space. MS compatible mouse & keyboard.
  • Recommended – Windows XP/Vista. AMD or Intel Dual Core 2.2 GHz processor. 1GB Ram. DirectX8.1 compatible sound card. 4xCD ROM drive, 1024x768 32Bit display. 750MB HD space. MS compatible mouse & keyboard.
Most computers can play FM these days and I'm looking for a relatively simple and easy to use computer.

Thanks a lot in advance, I hope you can help me out
