do you think this could do much?

im just tryin to get this just for my seinor year in high school. not going to do much gaming on it. Probably some World of Warcraft. As you can see im on a very low budget so will this even do that? thats about it.

I'm sorry, I can't see anything. Maybe try visible print or links instead of the invisible ones?

I merged your threads, since you are asking exactly the same thing.

That laptop is crap of course but if you want something cheap for only a year, then it will probably do.

If that is your budget, guess you have to do what you have to do. But as said, that is a really crappy laptop. With only 512 on the memory, I think its gonna run like a slug in winter time. "I" would get at least 1gig of memory. But then again that one has Vista Basic you are looking at, I have been running Premium.

If at all possible spend $400 on a desktop. If you can find a free case and reuse a monitor from something you can build a much higher end system than that laptop.
