Samsung RC512 Core i5 laptop $400- Good buy?

[NOVAdroid2151]

Morning everyone..

I haven't been in the laptop market in awhile.. I was hoping you all could help review the specs/price for me and tell me if this is a solid deal.

Microsoft Store Online - Samsung RC512 Core i5 Laptop

I like how it does not come with a lot of bloat ware... that is normally why I do not buy HP or Dell.. however I'm sure they have changed since my last purchase.

I was hoping for something that is "HD" where I could hook it up to my TV occasionally to watch movies or share pictures.

If you all could review and let me know, that would be amazing!
Thanks everyone and happy holidays!

Personally its nothing special. Im pretty sure you can find plenty of the same specs in that price range. If all u do is word and browsing then ya its a good product. Im actually assuming this is what you will do with it in that case you will be happy.

God sometimes I should read what op posted. Ya u can stream from this to your tv. Like I said earlier it will probablymeet all your needs just fine

Sorry, my internet isn't working great (link keeps timing out), but if it has WIDI, that'd be cool. I've never used it, but a lot of TVs now have that and it (claims) to allow you to watch media from the PC on the TV.

I'd keep looking (granted, I haven't seen what you linked), but there are still a few hours left of cyber monday, and you might be able to find a better deal.

I like to look at the 'deal' sites (brad's deals and a couple of others, they sometimes have huge savings (saw a laptop $600 off - still was $900 or so though...).
