Good grief, that's going to be a bit cheap and nasty and the plastics
will be just horrible, but... at that price, that's a *lot* of laptop.
I'm almost tempted to buy one for a "just in case" machine. I could let
the nieces and nephews muck around with it and play games and not worry
about it getting dropped or covered in kid stuff (chocolate, vomit,
fingerprints).

It's a lot more money, but this is probably about the best single laptop
on the market at the moment:

It's the cheaper consumer version of the Precision I've got - it's
really small, very powerful and has a great screen. It's not
particularly cheap, but it is good value for money especially compared
to roughly equivalent Macs.
