I just got a dell for pretty cheap ($350 USD) for some special they were having. Works for all my design needs. Can run photoshop, illustrator, and a bunch of firefox tabs (like usual).

So if you're trying to be cheap, i'd get a new dell laptop- its not the best but you should be fine for a couple years.

Also, i'm trying to save for a macbook pro as well. Hopefully this will last until then.
