That will do really well for internet browsing. You gettin a good deal on it? I would geuss it's not worth more than 400. Probably about 200-300. But i'm guessing. It has old ddr ram, so it is atleast 4 years old. Well, i'm rambling here, so good luck.

Re: laptop help specs inside
The specs on that laptop is more than needed for tuning programs, etc...
I bought an old *** IBM with only 4gb hard drive for tuning with crome... the ---- died before I even got to tuning my car with it though. But the previous owner has done stuff with it before being sold to me. Basing it off that, I'd say that laptop you're looking at is more than qualified to do any of the jobs.
