I'm not the expert around here, but I think you want to start by deciding what its going to be used for. Then the operating system you want. Then choose a brand or two that are acceptable, then decide new or refurbished or used, then look at price, then the specs just kind of fall into place.

The one you found sounds pretty mediocre. Is it new? What operating system?

I got a Dell laptop that was a few years old. A refurbished business model being resold on eBay. A top of the line model in its day. Well built. But I got it for a very decent price. It's starting to get slow with the software out there now, so I may need to be getting a new one soon. I want to get a Windows 7 machine while they are still in large supply.
