- Intel GMA integrated HD video card;

- Nvidia GeForce GT dedicated video card with 1GB VRAM 335M;

- 6 Cell Battery – 4400 mAh and 48 Wh;

- Bang & Olufsen ICEpower Speakers;

-LAN 802.11b/g/n – Operating system Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

Doesn't the whole "SonicFocus audio technology" spec. conflict with the "Bang & Olufsen ICEpower Speakers" spec.?

Listening to music, surfing the net, some gaming...

About recording, I might have to get informed about equipment of the sort later on...

I also need an electric guitar...might get one of those cheap ones that come with a 10/15 watt amp or something...No idea what I should go for there, but that's off topic.
the i5 is a beast, 4GB DDR3 is about all you'll ever truly need. If it has a dedicated card and a integrated one, its probably a deal where the dedicated GeForce card will probably turn off when the computer is unplugged. You should be able to play most older and some newer games. As far as music and surfing the net goes, your golden. While I'm not positive how hard the music recording and editing suites push computers, with those specs I'd assume you'd be alright.
