Is this laptop a 'good buy'?

I've seen this on Amazon.co.uk Asus X55C 15.6-inch Laptop (Black) - (Intel Core i3 2328M 2.2GHz Processor, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD, DVDSM DL, LAN, WLAN, BT, Webcam, Integrated Graphics, Windows 8) and wonder if it'll be any good. It goes on sale on the 05/11/12 and, at the moment, is priced at £338.28. I'm wondering if the graphics are any good or will the speakers be acceptable. I dunno....
:j I hope my comment helps :T

    if you plan on doing any gaming (not talking about flash games) then the above will not be good enough as the intergrated graphics chipset will not be powerful enough, however for eveything else the graphics will be fine

    on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
    10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
    20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
    30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)
