On a side note to the original post, (Clicked Submit accidentallytoo early), which is at 8/20 Laptop Deal
They also have the M105-S3041 which has the same specs but 14" LCD instead of 15.4" and DVD Burner as opposed to the combo drive.

Also a good upgrade with the $499.99 is 1GB Laptop Ram (Kingston) for $89.99

Just my 2 cents.
 
Hopefully their site hasn't been updated because at this time...

clicking on your link gets me the Toshiba showing a price of $479.99. No mention of the Lexmark printer.

going through the ad online (where it is described as T1350 notebook with printer $499.99) and clicking on "buy online" takes you to a page that has nothing to do with the computer OR the printer (it's about a notebook case for $19.99 with purchase of notebook models other than the T1350).

going to bestbuy.com and searching for 7907768 gets "sorry, no matches."

Sigh. Maybe later.
 
Okay - Update:

14" is $599.99 for that you get extra 20GB HDD (60 -> 80) and a DVD Burner. On the minus you go from 15.4" to 14" both are brightview.

I just got the $499.99 one but it was actually $479.99 instore. The store in Victoria, TX does not have any of the lexmark printers which was just as well since I did not want one anyway. I got the first one and everyone after me seemed very interested in the printer...Not sure how it will turn out.

I also got the 1GB DDR2 SODIMM for $89.99 and good news, the 512MB in the notebook is a single dimm. I popped in the kingston and am at 1.5GB no problem.

About to wipe it out and reload without all the crap. FYI Toshiba provides a Restore DVD w/ Drivers unlike HP which has you make them. On a Laptop with no DVD Burner it takes 13. I think not.

Anymore questions and I will be happy to answer.

I went to the Ikea near Pittsburgh and stopped at the Best Buy there. They had the laptop price listed as $479 instead of $499.
 
Wow, this is HOT. I could sure use a laptop...when I go to college in 2 more years! Muhahahah!
