Advise Concerning HP 17.3" G71-449wm Laptop

[curt31]

Hi guys saw this 17 inch HP when I was doing some shopping for the wife at Wal-Mart, really like the display and the hard drive although small by today's standards it is a 7200 rpm drive and I found it extremely fast things loaded almost instantly way different from my upgraded but ageing Gateway 15.6 The only thing I am concerned about is the limited amount of memory I mean it comes with 4 gig which for now should be plenty but at 4 it's maxed out and I think I would have felt more comfortable with maybe a 6 or 8 gig maximum. Seems like most of the newer 64 bit based systems allow at least 6 gig max of memory, so is this something I should be concerned about. Thanks

Thanks after seeing the 600 dollar price tag I think that's my limit, think I can find something better in that price range. Thanks!!
