Laptop Recs

[tzel]

It looks like at least for now the Macbook Pro is but a dream. I need something much cheaper to get me by until I either have a windfall or start making some extra money. So, anyone got recs for a solid but cheap laptop? I could go with a netbook or a tablet as long as they will read pdf's and connect to the tv. I do not want to spend more than $600 and if I can get something for considerably less I would be pleased. I will be using it mostly to store notes and images for my roleplaying games, store recipes and to connect to the internet. Bonus if I can play Diablo 3 on it whenever that comes out.

Thanks in advance!
