Laptop for photo editing/storage

    Hi guys,
    I'm looking at getting a new laptop that will be mainly used for photo editing, i'm not very familiar with tech jargon of computers so i'm hoping you can tell me if this setup is enough for what i need:

    Intel Core 2 Duo T6500(2.1GHz,800MHz,2MB)
    4GB (2x2GB Dual Rank DIMMs) 800MHz
    500GB Serial ATA (5400RPM)

    as i said i'll be using it for photo editing mainly with photoshop/lightroom, will probably have itunes open too and the web open on boards of course:pac: is there enough power there to do what i want to do at a workable speed?

    I have a budget of €700-1000, laptop will mainly be used at home so mobility is not an issue, the spec above is for a refurbed dell for a touch under €600 but if anyone has any other laptop suggestions then throw them at me :D

    I would think that what your getting sounds fair enough, Of course that's only my opinion.

    Laptop you give details for certainly seems to fit the bill alright, and the price is very good too!
