[quote name='dcfox']What do you plan on doing with it?[/QUOTE]
Not too much other than surfing the web. Definitely not gaming or watching movies or anything. However, if I get a laptop now I'd likely take it to college in a year and a half, in which case I'd probably need something more substantial.
On the other hand, if I just get a cheap netbook now I could probably afford a nicer laptop down the road for college.
