    After three years, I've finally decided to upgrade to a new laptop. My budget is $600, and it needs to be capable of playing at least 720p (hopefully 1080p) videos with ease. Light gaming is also preferred but not required (games such as WoW, Dawn of War, and other RTS games).

    My questions are;
    1. Is this laptop capable of what I want?
    2. Is there anything better I can get for $600 or less?

    Thanks in advance.
