I am a University student and I am starting school and am in need of a personal laptop so I can work on campus without having to come home for my desktop. I found this one on amazon and was just wondering if I am getting something worth while or if there is a better deal . Here  is the laptop and if there is a better recommendation anyone has I would appreciate it.

Battery life will be great on this guy, though, so that's a bonus.

It's a good model, but CPU a bit weak, poor battery life, TN panel, need to add SSD

 

What's your budget?
