Laptop advice/recs for around $500-$600?

Just need something for basic use (internet, entertainment, word processing), and something that can last. Maybe a decent-ish battery life/ lightness as well, if that's not too much to ask for the price range?

Looking at this at the moment:

but not really sure. Really appreciate any input, thanks!

    That laptop you linked is horrible. This laptop should suit your needs, I'd upgrade the ram to 6GB http://www.onlinecomputer.com.au/product_info.php?products_i…

      Given the price difference the specs are not so bad, most people don't need an i5. Build quality is likely to be the biggest issue.

      Also, few people need more than 4GB of RAM.

      This is pretty late, but thanks guys for the input! The laptop linked looks really good (pricewise too!), really appreciate the help.
