Ditto on the gaming needs.... but to get something that will play the graphics intensive game you will getting into the $1000+ range. The specs are solid, I been using a sempron based laptop for a year now and I have no complaints. I only had 512 Mg RAM and upgraded to 1024 recently. You didn't say if it had built in wireless, that's a must and my machine has a 15" screen which seemed huge after my former 12" screen.

Definitely. Great buying value. Is the processor a AMD Sempron 64 bit processor or just regular? Look for a 64 that will have the latest technology. Good Luck!!!

Seems like a very good computer at an excellent price. however for gaming, you should try to look into a better processor and a better video card. Otherwise, this is a great deal :)

HAHAHAHAHA you got ripped off big time. I can get a far more powerful laptop for the same price. You need to send it back. If you cant boy you got screwed big time. I hate to laugh at a moron but this time i cant help it. I am cracking up so bad. Dude i would just go sell it and buy a different one. You got a weak laptop. LMFAO maybe you should get a person who knows about laptops go with you and hold your hand to pick it out for you.

This is a good computer if you just want basic. However if you want to play computer games, you should find something better. Especially with a bigger hard drive and bigger video card
