I read the "Buying a Notebook Computer for Less Than $700" and came up with these possibilities for myself:

I getting this for when I join a cruise ship for 4 months. My budget is around $700. I will mostly just use it to compose with Finale, listen to music, watch DVDs, and maybe play some old adventure games with ScummVM.

I would really appreciate some opinions from anybody. If you think any one of these computers is a good deal for my $700 budget, please specify. Thanks

I didn't care for that artcile, honestly, because there are weekly deals available for less than those prices. This week, for example, Best Buy is selling 3 different laptops for $500.

Based on your requirements, I would say a $500 laptop (if check for proper configuration - these have 512MB RAM and Wifi) would suit you well enough. You can always add some memory for less than $200 if you needed it.
