Pretty good for normal use: Videos, internet etc.When it comes to gaming: Older games work on higher settings and newer games work on low to medium settings.

The display resolution is a little bit low imo. Apart from that it's pretty good as red said.

The price is too high and the specs are too low.

Get this one: MSI GP70-i740M287FD

Googol, it's Australian dollars so around 700€. Anyway, it depends on his usage. Generally speaking, exactly what Red said.
