    A guy says hes selling it for 500 is it a good price for this laptop or should I be looking else where for a good gamer. Is this laptop upgradeable GPU? I know the 9600 gs isnt that good.

    Usually GPUs are not upgradeable, no.

    As to the price, I wouldn't know. Seems fair for an old-ish laptop to me, but I have no idea how laptop prices evolve with age in the US.
