I want a family laptop for school work and surfing the net. I found this which I thought was a good size screen a full keyboard for my kids to learn with and I'm thinking a hdd may be better than an ssd. Storage capacity over speed?

I'm not up to speed on pc or laptop specs these days so any advise whether this spec is worth £300 or if there is something better out there for this price?

Personally I wouldn't buy any Celeron processor, let alone one paired with a spinner drive. You can get one equally decent at a thrift store these days.
