Ask the best buy people on the commercial. You find it you keep it. :D P.S. Read the customer reviews for more info o.O

Is that a single core? The graphics is pretty good I guess....and the memory......for that price. The hard drive is ok.

are you going to use it to play other games than maple?Because you might need a good Graphics card. Anyway wait for qwan his better than me when it comes to laptop for sure.

Wow, its hard to find a laptop nowadays for under $300, so i think youre lucky you found it. At checkout tell the manager, ''The password is I'm a PC'' and you might get a discount.

PirateJohn : nope just maple no like gb games ok. I checked the graphics card for you and it wasn't too good imo BUT that can be because im used to expensive graphics cards, but i think you can find a better laptop with a graphics card with around 450-500mhz for the price. Im going to check new egg for you

Those specs are fine for the one you found. It definately can do maple and other tasks. If you find that same one with XP, that would be a plus.

Lol, that's the same laptop that I have =3...I think...Anyway, if it is it's pretty good for the price. Runs maple very smoothly but can't run any heavier programs. I tried playing Wheelman and the new NFS on it...yeah, not so good.
