Hi Guys,

Just wondering if you could recommend a place to buy a reasonable laptop with camera capability in order to be able to chat to the kids in the UK through skype?

Any ideas on how much they are?

Thanks

QR4000 (£720)sounds expensive! I can get a decent one here for around £300 (QR2000ish)?

Arent they supposed to be cheaper in Qatar?

You'll get a good one at QR4000 or so, depending on the brand

Carrefour has good ones. Most of the new laptops out right now come with built in web cams.

You can also buy a Skype phone online and just hook it up on the computer and the telephone line. Works as a cordless phone. It's awesome.
