Any opinions on this laptop?

The specs look good enough to me, but I don't know anything about modern CPUs.

I'm surprised that no one has asked what sort of video card is built into this. Considering that the print ad makes absolutely no mention of it, I'm guessing it's the usual integrated graphics special. As, unlike the RAM, a laptop graphics card usually is impossible to upgrade after the fact, it bears some consideration, however brief. On the other hand, if you are positive you will never want to play a 3D game on this machine, then no worries... the deal you've found looks pretty solid.

I second this. I can't even play Sims2 properly on the new laptop, due to the low graphics. But for everything else, it's cool.
