Is it worth it for the price?
I need it for school mainly, but I would like to install my Sims 2 game along with all the expansion packs if possible. Is the graphics card capable of running this game? Would it work for the upcoming Sims 3 game?
Also, if you have any laptops to recommend, that would be great! I am looking for a 13 - 14 inch laptop under 0.

you have to tell what the cpu model is, core2duo 2.00G is not enough actually. generally speaking, the price is good for the specifications, but toshiba has some known problems.
