We have two, both running after years of service.
One is stock and running the Windows 7 32 bit upgrade.
What I would recommend is changing the DVD to a compatible one (I put a Blu ray player in) and then changed the hard drive for a seagate hybrid one, now it is running Windows 7 64 bit.
All is running fine and the Turion x2 2.2 GHZ processor is bullet proof.
The only downside to it's age is that the ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics Card is a little slow compared with some modern laptops but it will run video in 1080P and is still quite good considering this was a £300 laptop when I bought the second one new.
The speakers are also fine when you get the volume up though we tend to watch film on a 46 inch 1080P monitor so it's normally going down the HDMI line.
