Can anyone tell me how good of a computer this is? I just need a laptop for home use.

This seems like a great deal for the specs. I've been looking for awhile now and I haven't seen anything comparable to this price. Someone tell me if I'm wrong before I jump on this.

I looked around on the web and its a pretty good deal. Any idea Brad or Marcster?

I like no rebates and free shipping and newegg has always been good to me.

I'd love some feedback too. I need to buy a laptop for DD18 who starts college in the fall.

It's a very good deal for the price. The smaller 14.1" screen is nice as most of the $400 laptops are the larger, heavier 15.4" models. The fact that you also get Vista Premium instead of the Basic version is also a nice plus.

 

If you only want to spend $400 on a laptop, you won't get much better than this anytime soon.

Thanks Brad, since I posted this it has been listed on other sites (copycats) so this wont last long. But, Newegg is pretty good on their stock.

Okay, I'm dumb...what do we need this for? Is this to get online? Thanks

[elite2058]

you dont need it, the laptop is wireless already. My friend wanted this to convert from a G to N Wireless Network.

I also am new at this and will be buying my first laptop within a month. Is this to upgrade a G router to a N router? I was going to buy a G router for $55.99 but my brother suggested a N router but that is $99.99. This would be much cheaper if it is what I think it is. Thanks.
