Nothing special, I sure as hell won't be playing many games on it, but should be fine for browsing the internet, media viewing and other basic features. Was only NZ$35 at least.

Intel Core 2 Duo @1.4GHz
3GB DDR2 RAM
200GB hard drive (with 157GB available after Windows and standard software are installed)

Might install some basic games from my Humble and GOG libraries, but not even going to install the Steam software. Storage space is just too low.

Even if it's got Intel graphics, that thing would be more than enough for emulation through 5th gen plus most handhelds. Assuming it's in okay condition, that's a good deal if the conversion rate I just looked at was accurate.

I didn't even look up the graphics. I suck. Probably bad though, wasn't listed on the spec sheet.

Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset, GM45 GPU at 320MHz, probably using integrated memory.

That's stupidly cheap, which makes up for the junky specs. Beats just buying a Chromebook or something.

Like I said, cheap. This is more for browsing the internet without being limited to my phone. Installed Opera and it works fine. Also put on some small games that could entertain the brats, along with Netflix. It won't be a replacement for my desktop.
