    Something with a glossy screen probably will be better for movies. The Celeron M runs at 100% all the time, so fan noise may be an issue.

    The specifications look very good for the price and the keyboard also includes the num pad which is a very good addition. They should have used a Pentium M but the Celeron should be fine for basic tasks.

    It shouldn't be "noisy" and yes, you can play games on it. As for this model, the integrated graphics may be a little weak for graphic intensive games, but I believe the 9500 does have a model with an ATI x700 on it, but of course, it'll cost a bit more than this. ;)
