Review Summary: Worst laptop I've ever owned
Review: This is the worst I've EVER had. Believe me I used to think Toshiba had pretty good products. I bought an HP two years ago and it's still running strong. I got this Toshiba for my wife last xmas... big mistake, the battery gives out in 45 minutes, it's been back twice already for factory warranty issues, and it's still having problems!

Review Summary: "the only thing more unreliable than the product, is the customer service that comes with it..or doesn't"
Review: If you're reading this review right now, then chances are you want to make sure you are making the right choice.
Let me assure you, if you're planning on purchasing a Toshiba laptop, you are not.
Please, google "toshiba laptop complaints" and get the REAL reviews.
As for my input...
this is a conversation that took place in an authorized toshiba shipping store:
me: "Man, let me tell you something... NEVER buy a Toshiba laptop."
clerk: "With the ammount of them that we ship back every month, I never would."
..just in case you were wondering how many laptops this authorized postal service receives from customer and ships out for repair every month - "..about 30" is the answer that I got
Good luck.

Review Summary: NEVER BUY A PRODUCT WITH VISTA
Review: The computer should be fast, but compared to a old laptop with a pentium 3 running XP it is a dog. The pentium 3 run circles around it and the Toshiba has not had any applications installed and is right out of the box.
Never buy any product with Microsoft Vista.

Review Summary: Great Laptop
Review: The laptop is really nice. It has 64-bit AMD processors, which I feel work faster that Intel chips (from my own experience). It would be near perfect if not for the awful Vista OS. Vista is simply awful for me to use until I performed numerous tweaks that turned off most of its so-called improvements. Once I disabled most of Vista's "improvements" the laptop's speed really screamed upwards dramatically. A new Vista user should google the web for Vista speed tweaks--I found 10 on one site and more on others. Since I use my own firewall, a secure proxy, several spyware catchers, etc., I don't use Windows defender or any of the other new garbage that Microsoft put in Vista. The laptop would be absolutely wonderful had it come with XP (a far superior OS to Vista IMHO).
