Default EQ Laptop

I recently asked about a desktop gaming unit and got some great responses I held off buying one as I was due a laptop upgrade at work and I have found a decent laptop (although I know nothing about laptops) and just wanted your opinion on it really, it is refurbished but does come with a 12 month warranty.

Is it good enough for eq (maybe even raiding) or should I look at something else. thanks in advance

Specs here: http://www.cnet.com/products/hp-pavi...b-20-gb/specs/

Then you can most definitely play on that new laptop.
