600 dollars is my budget which is why this is the one I've chosen.

Not getting much battery life doesn't bother me, often I just need to have it last long enough that I can bring it somewhere and plug it into a wall.

I don't know what HDD even is xp

I don't play video games... Basically I need it so I can
A. Go on the internet on the road, or when all computers are taken
B. Have a computer which isn't being spammed with my brother's, and father's crap
A 15.4 inche screen is fine considering I don't think I'm going to play any games other then Runescape


This is one of the best I could find with a $600 budget.
