    This is an incredible piece of equipment. It is very very versatile, reliable and economically priced. I would recommend it to persons doing research and teaching. It also has the capacity to provide good entertainment. It makes a good companion and good buying choice for starters.


    1 out of 5 stars A very BAD choice   September 20, 2008
    A. Matsyshe
    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 exactly the UPS receives from customer and ships out for repair every month - "..about 30" is the answer I got

    Good luck.

    My first lap top and so far so good. A lot more bells and whistles than my desk top but they are all to the good. I am a novice in the computer world but I am able to do all I want with this.


    1 out of 5 stars Toshiba laptops are a piece of junk   August 10, 2008

    I purchased a Toshiba Satellite computer for > $1300. It had all the bells and whistles including fingerprint reader. Within six weeks after purchase I started having problems with it. It wouldn't boot up, it would crash, monitor would fail, etc, etc, etc. I called customer service after the first occurance and was told it was a software problem and they would do nothing about it. I repeatedly called, after each occurance, and was repeatedly told by customer service it was a software problem. Nine months later the entire system dropped dead. I called customer service again. Turns out it was a bad hard drive, not a software problem. This time I was asked to send it to one of their service centers (at my cost, $55 each way). Now, this product is still under warranty. They (Toshiba) charged me $250 dollars to retrieve all the info off the old drive, $200 labor, $250 to reinstall all the software and info that was on the old drive and of course, shipping and handling and insurance charges. When I shipped the piece of crap to then it had a 120 GB hard drive. When they returned it, it only had an 80 GB hard drive because they were out of the 120 GB hard drives. Nine months later the very same thing started happening again. This time, since the piece of crap was out of warranty, Toshiba would do nothing and I was treated VERY rudely by their customer service management team. Needless to say I didn't replace the hard drive, again. When I purchased my new computer I was told by the store manager of a major chain that he won't reccommend a Toshiba product to anyone because they are a piece of junk. He says the only reason he carries them is because the store chain tells him he has to. PLEASE, don't waste your money on any Toshiba products. They are JUNK!
