Laptop question

[chrisc615]

Does this seem like a good deal on a laptop or should I keep looking.

IdeaPad Y550

Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor T4400
Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit
nVidia Geforce GT 240M graphic card with 1GB memory
15.6 HD WLED Glossy, 1366*768 with 1.3M integrated Camera
3 GB PC3-8500 DDR3 SDRAM 1066MHz SODIMM Memory (2 Dimms)
500GB Hard Disk Drive, 5400rpm
SuperMulti DVD Recordable (Tray type)
Intel WiFi Link 5100 1x2 (AGN) WLAN
6 Cell Lithium-Ion 2.6Ah


$659.00

Looking for one to do some light gaming(WOW, and pre2007 games) and other general thing. I bought the $300 emachine but its just not cutting it in the gaming department(intel 4500)

Lenovo often has a 15% off coupon (it's been as high as 20%).

Maybe look for a brand new (now discontinued) Lenovo T400 on eBay from a reputable seller.

Dell Vostro might be another option to research.
