    Hi i am new so i am not sure if this is where im suppose to post my questions. If its wrong then please move it. I apologize in advance.

    I am going to university soon. I am looking at a toshiba a500-025 just as my title says for 900 dollars( in canada) with t6500, hd4570 512mb and 400hdd.

    I think the specs are good enough as i dont demand high settings in games and super fast rendering. But I do have a few question about the machine.

    How long is the battery life, hows the quality of the machine, and if possible can somebody post the 3dbenchmark score of the machine or anything similar to it.

    Any answer will be appreciated.

    I'm also in Canada looking at the same system (where is it $900?) I'm comparing it with the L500 series and not noticing much of a difference besides the speakers, but if anyone can say otherwise, please let me know!
