Its GREAT for streaming movies and videos. as well as the 500gb for storage of all ur music/movies etc. runs video games quite well too. even though you said you dont want it for that. if the temptation ever arises, it handles well. i play splinter cell chaos theory on it from time to time (not a high performance demanding game) but runs smooth with full resolution.
My cousin runs a game named Rift (or whatever) on medium settings and it plays smooth.

I'm looking to spend not a dime over $600...and this is on sale at tigerdirect for $429. Is there a better deal I can get out there? Or is this just right for what I'm looking to spend and what I'm looking to use it for?

My only suggestion it to stay away from lower end Acer machines. I have two and have had troubles, what seems like, since the moment the warranty ran out.
****s.
Not you guys....Acer.
