I know obviously the more expensive one is better but these are on sale.
Remember these are Canadian prices.
All of these laptops have a built in webcam.

I will be using the laptop for some low gaming such as World of Warcraft and hopefully Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3. This is not AS important though as everything else seeing how I have a computer itself that will run those games later on.

There's the list of all laptops available at Future Shop. If there are any on the $700 or less list that is preferably better than the Compaq for its price, please list it. Thank you all very much for helping me!

Does anyone know how good the stability of a Compaq laptop is?
I heard that it breaks easily and I don't know if that is true.

Compaqs are the cheaper versions of HP notebooks, more or less. Their cases are flimsier, yes, but they can handle a beating.
