What can i get for my laptop?

Is this a good laptop for what I need? Please answer, need as much help as I can get?

• Im looking to buy a good laptop for around $600 in Canada. I have a $50 gift card to FutureShop and have bought 90% of my electronics there so I would like it to be from there. I want it to have enough space for school work, pictures, music, itunes, videos etc. A DVD Player would be awesome! I want it to play The Sims 3 + a few expansions (MUST) I found this one and it seems awesome for the price but I cant find any reviews or info on it: http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/product/hewlett-packard-hp-pavilion-17-3-amd-phenom-ii-quad-core-mobile-p960-laptop-english-refurbished-web-only-dv7-6153nr/10186534.aspx?path=220b3a2e686618535b5474591d370825en02 For the price it is great. But it is refurbished (I have read about it and it seems fine, I can return it if it is in bad shape anyway) Only thing is, it only has 90 day warranty :( I was also looking at this: This one was $549 yesterday and now its $569, just noticed :( http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/product/gateway-gateway-15-6-amd-phenom-ii-quad-core-n970-laptop-nv53a06h-brown-nv53a06h/10169366.aspx?path=c1572e3e12368736aeea9d0fdc1a0367en02 I found others but I think those are the top 2 in my price range...If you have any suggestions (from Futureshops site, under $600, PLEASE let me know) I need one ASAP Here is a link to graphic card compatibility with sims 3 http://www.notebookcheck.net/Computer-Games-on-Laptop-Graphic-Cards.13849.0.html

• Answer:

  Try Walmart Canada. They have best return policy, and wide assortment at very good prices. Compare price with futureshop. Bargain with futureshop for 1 year warranty for same price. That's what you need. Walmart is 1 year. If you don't like future shop price, bargain with them. If they won't, back to Walmart.
