I am looking at 14" computers. Im a Realtor and need a good computer for on the go. I saw this HP at Best Buy and would like to know if it is a good buy and will it be reliable. It is priced at $580. I would appreciate all comments and sugestions. Is there a better laptop available for the money. I like the 14" and I would like to stay under $650. I would consider a 15.5 inch if it were a better computer.

I'd suggest going with Intel if possible. I'm not as experienced on current AMD processors, but I know some of the early Turion's ran quite hot in comparison to Intel processors. That aside, it seems fine for pretty basic usage. Don't expect much to any gaming on it, though.
