You'd need to tell us what you're trying to do on it. I don't think you'll be able to do much in the way of gaming on a $400 laptop.

You have to buy from Staples because Mitt Romney loves talking about how he made it exist.

HP

If you are only going to be watching video, web, and office i would get a good tablet and a wireless keyboard. If you use your desktop to game then the tablet would be much cooler and portable. Then again everyone says that my laptops are so heavy so maybe thats why i dont like them.

It looks like the laptop is using one of the new AMD hybrid CPU/GPUs. Those processors are relatively new and I'm not sure if any n00bs have actually dealt with them. The processors are better than any integrated video solution on the market, but it's still an integrated graphics card.
