Hi,
well i bought recently a new laptop model Compal HEL-80 with the following specifications:
Core 2 duo T7200
1 Gb Ram DDRII 667 Mhz
Nvidia Go 7600 with 256 MB
15,4" Monitor 1280x800
120 GB Hard Drive 5400 rpm (at the time they didn't had any hard drive at 7200 rpm)
Windows XP Home
Total cost: 1180â¬
It works fine, only the hard drive could be faster, but you can use a fast external hard drive by firewire or usb
