If you watch the ads you can pick something up new for close to that. I had $625 in my Toshiba Satellite about 1 year ago - 2.0 GHz mobile p4, 256 mb ram (recently upgrade to 512), 30 gb hard drive, xp home, cd burner/dvd combo drive, 15" monitor)........like ZerOs said, check out Dell. If I wasnt so damn impatient I probably would have bought from them but I drove to the nearest city when they were having a rebate extravaganza and picked up one at CrapUSA, errr I mean CompSUCKS......I really meant CompUSA. Video editing is going to be a tuff bill to fill with that price range. You can do video editing on almost anything if your patient. My video machine is a 1.7 celeron with 256 mb ram and 80 gb WD SE hard drive. Gets the job done just doesnt do it terribly quick........but thats all that PC is used for so I dont need it to be quick. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

![]() ![]() | For video editing you would need a large hard drive. It's rather hard finding laptops with large hard drives for ~600. Are you looking to get an external too?
