Looks like a very nice buy.
I would also get it if I have the chance.

Intel Graphics... Say no more.

The HD 3000 IGP actually isn't bad at all for general use, 1080p video viewing, and light gaming.

The biggest thing here is, look at the price he paid for a second gen i5 based laptop.

yea, all the cons i found with this laptop were out weighed by the fact that i paid just over $250 for it. i was looking at the Nexus 7 tablet, which would have been more than this full fledged laptop. i am very happy with my purchase.

i put Battlefield 1942 Desert combat mod on it and it runs perfect. i also put Battlefield 2 on it and it also runs perfect at maxed settings.

i also put Unreal Tournament GOTY Edition 1999 on it, and of course it runs flawlessly, i love that game to this day....

my server also died, so this laptop replaced my server/HTPC, fills that role flawlessly, and i have the added benefit that i get to take it with me to my friends house and share my library with them.

Eesh, I envy you actually. That computer trumps mine. Well, it's a lot smaller and has more RAM so that is definitely a plus on your side. That and you bought it for much cheaper than I bought mine for. And at a subsidiary of Wal-Mart no less! Which was the place where I got mine... I feel ripped off now.

Not sure about your processor because my knowledge in that field is lacking. Still, it SOUNDS impressive. :B

Honestly you can buy computers with the same specs for triple that if not more. Like you said above any cons are blown away for $250... You got your self a decent to good laptop for a great price. Nice grab
