you need to be more specific about what you intend to use it for. Is it just for email and web browsing or do you want to use it to watch streaming video etc. Are you wanting to use word,excel or any other packages.

do you use any apps that may need more power than your basic level kit? like a lot of photo or video editing or games that arent on facebook or require decent GPU power

£350 will get you an ok laptop, but a half decent desktop (especially if you already have a decent monitor and the other bits needed). but it will be bulky, heavy and you can only ever use it at your desk. a laptop is a lot more convenient...
