Is that your budget? I could definitely recommend something better if you told us how much you're willing to spend. Also, form factor is important. How big do you want the screen? A 4-cell LI is pretty weak. You won't be getting much battery life off of it.

The model you listed has a weak processor, low memory, small HDD, and a regular CD burner as opposed to a DVD burner. Sorry if I seem picky, but you'll want something that lasts, so that six months down the line you don't regret making the purchase. Then again a $600 budget isn't going to fetch you anything that much better somewhere else.
