How good?

Got this for like $60, so I already know it's a good deal. The laptop itself retails for 800-900, but how is it parts wise.

You won't be able to game much on it. Minecraft is about it, on like Normal settings.

On a laptop with 6 gigs ram and 2.3 dual core AMD I was able to play some games with decent graphics. I think I'll honestly be able to do a bit more than Minecraft.

...It has an intel 4000.

Ram, and CPU has basically no improvements in games.

RAM does not affect your gaming experience unless you have like 256MB of RAM. CPU matters a little bit but won't do much. Your graphics card will make the difference and since your Intel 4000 is an integrated chip you won't really do any better than some decent Minecraft frames imo

It's not bad, but you're not going to be playing anything too fancy like you'd expect.
My old Dell laptop has similar specifications to this and it had trouble playing Minecraft on fancy..

All I do is play emulators and small indie games, not heavy requirement games like AAA titles. I tried out the dolphin emulator yesterday, ran Wind Waker at a constant 30 FPS with no lag, so I'm good with it.
