Which of these three computers is the best deal?

Question

I've got $850 to spend on a lap top for school, I'd also like to be able to play a video game or watch movies on it once in a while. I need on to use for taking notes in class. I live in Canada. These are the three I'm looking at, which do you think is the best one for the price based on their stats?

The middle one looks the best considering price to me. However, don't expect to play any intense games on it. But it should be fine for internet, word and watching movies.

Acer has come along pretty well over the past few years and are not bad at all.

Well, all three of those laptops are pretty bad for gaming (all use Intel X3100 integrated graphics)  However, given the options, I'd pick the HP.  It has a slight edge on specs over the other two and HP makes good laptops (Sony does too, but I don't like that particular model... too ugly ;)  Acer's laptops are basically glorified paperweights, in my opinion.
