I am looking for a laptop for college that is < $1000. I found a Acer AS5003WLMi AMD Turion 64 15.4" Wide XGA SiS Mirage 2 NoteBook at newegg for $939 which looks good. It has an AMD ML-32(1.8GHz), 1GB of RAM, 100GB HD, and DVD Burner. It also has SiS Mirage 2 as a graphics card. I don't know much about graphics cards and wanted to know if this is a good idea. I don't think i am going to play any games on it but i may do some graphic editing on it. I just want to know what you think and if it is worth the money. If you have any other laptop suggestions, I would love to hear them.
 
If by graphic editing you mean just pictures, don't worry about it. If you mean something more intense like CAD or video animation you may have a problem. That video isn't going to be able to run games, but if you don't plan on gaming I think it's a good price. The Turion just came out and is less power hungry, so the battery should last longer on this one than with other processors.
