Is this a good laptop for a 14 year old.?

This is for my 14 year old he will go on guild wars and internet and store music and photos and watch videos I would expand the ram to 2 gig of course. and I would most likely end up getting windows xp for vista premuim.

Update:

To get the specs click on the link and scroll down to bundle systems click on the mist gray laptop and go to specs and it will show you.

    Well,if you want decent ,stable performance i would buy this and probably upgrade the RAM like u said.It will give you a better performance rate on your pc than usual.This pc wont be able to run guild wars real stable,but it will do well if your not looking for good GFX.It also comes with Windows vista basic and really,to tell u the truth I would recommend Premium.Its more used and better than the basic version.

    So to my conclusion,get this pc and upgrade the RAM maybe.Let me tell u this,too this pc doesnt come with the Intel Core Duo 2 Processors either so performance is going to be slower than nowadays pcs out today.

    yes, not that a 14 year old needs one. He will love anything that has decent amount of space and access to the internet,

    Their might not be enough memory, but it seems like a good fit for a 14-year-old.

    Looks good to me. Upgrades are probably required for online gaming.

    Considering he is nearing college age, I would suggest the following website that gears towards high schoolers/college students.
