I'm in need of a laptop, and I happened to find that one on sale in the mall, I don't really know anything about emachines though. I wouldn't need it for any high tech gaming or anything, just for surfing the web and school is all its needed for. I don't want to spend too much money as I am going on a trip soon Please help :)

If you're only going to use it for internet and school, it sounds like a good laptop to choose. But, are you looking for a large screen? Like a dell laptop screen? -has dell laptop-

15'6 isn't too bad, its just slightly smaller than my moms computer monitor which is fine. I would LOVE a dell laptop but Dell's are so expensive! :x

I think they are expensive too ^_^;, but I got mine at Christmas (my twin sis also got one too!).

Lucky you! My parents would NEVER buy me a laptop xD

:D lol

How come? o.O

I wouldn't recommend Dell just from personal experience.

My boyfriend has an Acer laptop and not even a year later, its pretty much crapped out.

Almost $100 less and pretty much the same thing

If you can help it, dont buy from stores like circut city. Those places are stupidly overpriced.

Im not sure what your price range is but just look around on Newegg.

seems a bit overpowered to me. i dont get why ppl get dual core laptops with badass vid cards and whatever

i use an Asus Eee PC 900 for school myself and its great, small as hell too

Yeah... Maybe you should consider a netbook. They're on the smaller side- mine is 10 inches, but there's a smaller 8" screen, too. They run only a couple hundred- I got mine for $330.
