Thank you. Hmm. There's an idea. Mint. But I guess that may struggle with YouTube?

Hi, My wife may soon be in the market for a new laptop. It would be purely for web browsing (eg YouTube) and email - nothing demanding at all. The cheaper the better. This caught my eye. https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/notebooks/gemini-IV/ It does seem very cheap - I see that the specs are...
