If that's the case, then I'd just see if he'd let you spend some time on it for a bit, just to see how it runs. My laptop needs more memory, but I don't go around complaining to my friends (only my closest of friends). Ask him "what do you like least about your laptop?" and see if that seems like something that's going to bug you down the road.

Sometimes stuff that doesn't seem like a big deal in the excitement of buying a new computer becomes a bigger deal down the road, when the "newness" wears off, or so my experience has gone.
