I bought an ASUS K53S (apparently discontinued), with an i7 processor and 8GB RAM (now 12). SUPERB machine, as all ASUS are in my opinion (Acer on the other hand, have always been problematic in our household). It goes, FAST! (runs all the modern games at full slider values without hiccup, as the onboard graphics are super too)
I wouldn't go under that spec much, as even with all this, an Win 7 64 bit, DSS sometimes STILL runs out of memory (which they'd make a 64 bit version), especially if doing a 3X drizzle.
Got mine at Joyce Mayne Chancellor Park. Cost was just on $1300 at the time.
