How you define good? I'll break down into small chunks and explain to u.

Processor: Average. Good if you are not using CPU intensive applications.

Graphics: Not recommended for serious gaming.

RAM: average. I'll say 2 GB is the recommended minimum for Vista

Screen: Big and Clear

Sound: Good

HDD: Big enough

DVD: Good

Weight: Heavy. Not for lugging around

Budget PC..good for light gaming and surfing and office work.
DVD drive = obsolete - No one use CD-RW/DVD combo drive
Combo drive means can burn/read CD but can only read DVD - nowadays PC comes with DVD-RW liao

dont get linksys!! get aztech instead. warranty is gd, price cheap, n most imp of all their aft-sales support n cust service is definitely better than linksys. i got a few bad experiences wif linksys support. especially when u can hardly catch a word they r trying to say.

Laptop: which one do u refer to? the C722TU or tablet PC? if C722TU, processor is good for normal use, but not for doing 3d modelling or other processor intensive work. memory of 2gb is enough for vista basic, graphic card not good for playing graphic intensive applications or games, sound is good, harddisk big enough, but a little heavy. As for tablet PC, ram too little, must at least 2gb, processor not bad, graphic card is integrated, not good for playing graphic intensive games, and battery abit weak. harddisk quite big..

Router: buy D-Link, not linksys..

according to the time value of $, asking you to wait 3 months means the laptop’s value will depreciate from the oredi small amount it is worth currently.
