The HO 6715S 15.4 inch screen, which can be considered a big DTR (Desktop Replacement). The specs for this particular model are: AMD Sempron Mobile 3500+ 512 MB DDR RAM (1 dimm.) 80 GB 5400 Rpm Hard Drive 15.4" XGA monitor Windows Vista Business 8802.11a/b/g internal WLAN Reasons for Buying: I bought this laptop to replace my old Sony laptop, which kept overheating constantly. I wanted a notebook for basic tasks, and maybe some occasional games at the lowest price.
