    Good deal, thanks for posting. The L305 is a rather light notebook at 5.5 lbs, and the T3400 processor is snappy.

    The L305/L355 are actually quite nice looking, well-built laptops. Even more so when compared to others in their price range, such as the Dell Inspiron 15 (1545). I bought my little sister an L300 last Christmas and she loves it!
