It seems like a nice laptop for school/light gaming. I am wondering if anyone else knows much about the brand before I invest into it.

Never heard of such a brand, maybe that's why the price is so low? But try googling the name + review.

 

 

 

Good specs, laptops don't come with DDR anymore, all of them are equipped with DDR2.

 

Funny thing is, you didn't tell us what the graphics card is :)

 

And what's the harddrive speeds?

 

 

 

But the specs are good, + the price is very generous. As long as you don't think Crysis, that laptop will do you good.

I got the exact specs of it and updated my original post.
