    I like acer but at that price point look at hp or dell. Don't get a nvidia gpu right now.

    If you'r upset because you can't afford shoes look at the man that has no legs. Lifes not so badBig Smile

    Eeepc's are very limited for $600 he could get a dual core 1Gb vista lappy with a bigger screen.

    That is really nice. 2GB of ram and a dual core pentium. The new pentiums are really snappy. I got the crapware off a friends laptop that she had just got. It was the same cpu. Really nice.

     I agree! For just $50 more (after tortuous mail-in rebate) the Lenovo adds 1GB more RAM, webcam, and a slightly-faster CPU. Amazing...for only $550 to $600 you can get a pretty-descent laptop!Yes

    For sure on that, Bob!

    Re: Looking for a Laptop.

     For your budget you'd better go and have a look in Dell.
