Is this too good to turn down?

I have been asked to recommend a laptop for a friend with ~£500 to spend. Doesn't need to be a high spec gamer, but obviously the best she can get for the price is desirable.

I've seen a Samsung R540 (Intel Core i3-370M 2.4GHz, 4Gb, 500Gb, DVDRW, WLAN, Webcam, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit) for £530.

Is this too good to pass up? (I'm way out of touch with laptop specs, so any advice appreciated).
 
She's not really sure (it's her first laptop/pc believe it or not!), I'm guessing web browsing and email. She does have a couple of games consoles so it's not inconceivable that she may want at some stage to use it for games.
 
I think the idea behind the laptop as opposed to a desktop is more just to save space. I can't really see her using it on the go, so it will most likely be plugged in.

My view is that the higher the spec the better so that it will cover her for whatever she decides to do with it. She's left the decision pretty much up to me, so the more bang for her £ the better.
 
I appreciate what your saying. I'll read between the lines and assume that you think it's a decent enough, well specced machine and see what she thinks about the battery life.
