1. what is the name of the laptop?
2. Most of the features are not bad..not very good for gaming ..but there is a flaw in your customization..with the intel core i3 380m you don't get the intel HD 3000 graphics as the integrated graphics..you get the older intel GMA 4500MHD..For you to get the newer intel HD 3000 you have to get the new 2nd generation core i series processors(they have 4 digit labelling)...if its HP you want try a HP PAVILLION dv6 3012si..it will offer you decent graphics capabilities and it won't cost you that much... But i would also suggest you try the toshiba L 655 or 755 series...
3. it is the good choice you should go for it.
4. HP is the worst reliability in the marketplace. Asus / Toshiba / Apple are the top 3. Here's a lappy chart http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5QdtEy-qao
