      T3400 is the definition of shoddy processors. There are plenty better laptops for the 400$ range.

      T3400 is plenty fast enough for the typical tasks done on a laptop purchased because of it's positioning in the low-end. Anybody remember centuries ago when we managed to get work done on systems less than 1/4th as fast?
