If you choose that laptop, you will need to upgrade the processor and ram for any amount of photoshop/gaming. It has integrated graphics, so games will not look that good, or play that fast. Now, that laptop is starting at 330 euros, I think that is about 700usd if I am not mistaken (I probably am)
Newegg.com has great computer deals, like this one. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834115467 That laptop has enough ram, a good processor, and a big hard drive for what you need. It has a core2duo processor, AND dedicated graphics for $750 usd.

Nope, none of them will game well as all of them have integrated graphics. Also only the last one will run Photoshop CS3 nicely with 2 gigs of ram.

With the budget that the OP is on, you won't get anything good really!

The acer I suggested is still the best option because it has dedicated graphics. For $750 usd, you can't find something with a great penryn c2d, dedicated graphics, a good size hard drive, and enough ram. It is also not "crap" speed. If the op can spend more than say $1000, he can get what he wants.
