Blazing Deal?

Been looking for a laptop - budget is under $600. No gaming, will primarily be used for grad school. Newegg has this as a "blazing deal" I've just started my search (and its been 5 years since I bought a laptop) so I'm not sure how great a deal it is. Here are the specs/link.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834115557

$549.99

Acer Aspire AS6930-6235 NoteBook Intel Core 2 Duo T6400(2.00GHz) 16" Wide XGA 4GB Memory DDR2 667 250GB HDD 5400rpm DVD Super Multi Intel GMA 4500MHD - Retail

I like the 16" screen/4 gigs ram. Battery life and hdd aren't great, just ok. Any feedback or other ideas?

If you have a desktop for general use, you might consider something more lightweight with a smaller screen to take to school. I'd say that laptop is a fine price for the specs you get though.
