I would say the CPU is not very good for any new computer. 1.6GHz is really quite slow and I doubt even in boost mode (up to 2.3GHz) it would give you satisfactory performance.

It looks alright. HP makes great laptops but if I were you, I'd go for one of the new DV7's with an i7 or i5.

it was released in June 2011, and I'll be using it for office documentation/web browsing and casual gaming. So assuming it will be alright for such tasks. :zip:
