Hi J

Stay away from Lenova unless you have a lot of tylenols handy. For $600, you can get an ACER Aspire, full load with webcam and ATI card. That computer is extremely reliable, sturdy and with the Vista OS on it, crashproof.

We repair a lot of Lenovo lately. They overheat. Compaq is also a good buy but Acer is preferable.
