    Nice to meet u all,

    Im currently wondering if I should buy a Toshiba Satellite Model U305-S5097
    at Office depot for $749.99+tax and I need some advice if this notebook is actually worth the buying.

    Few questions:
    1. Hows the built quality and heat distribution?
    2. Hows the screen quality? Any grainies?
    3. Avg. Battery life on 6cell battery?
    3. Its a 13.3" notebook, but is it really light and thin?
    4. Ultimately, IS THIS A GOOD DEAL?

    FULL SPECS:
    Intel Pentium Dual-Core Mobile T2130 1.86 GHz
    1 GB RAM ;MAX 4GB
    160 GB - Serial ATA-150 - 5400 rpm
    13.3 in TFT active matrix 1280 x 800 ( WXGA)
