- Pros: Bought 3. One running Vista, one running XP 64-bit, the other XP 32-bit. No problems because Toshiba website is the greatest finding drivers. Got another coming for someone else. Lightweight, cool running, more than good enough for Dreamweaver, Acid Pro, Adobe Premiere, and Vegas.
- Cons: Small HDD. Battery life 2-2.5 hours on all 3.
- Other Thoughts: Recommend. Make sure to turn on SATA compatibility mode in Bios if you're going to downgrade to XP otherwise you get an error message after trying to start up with the CD.
Great Product
- Pros: For 449.00 and free shipping this is a unbeatable deal. The vista experience index is unexpectedly high for such a cheap laptop. After removing all the bloatware, the boot time is extremely fast. The screen is also pretty smudge resistant. For its size three usb ports are not to bad and the media center control bar actually works consistently unlike many other models. While not the lightest laptop this size the weight distribution is fairly even and the battery does not make the laptop uneven.
- Cons: No webcam, somewhat small hard drive, and the blue high gloss finish attracts fingerprints like a magnet. Only a vga output not dvi.
- Other Thoughts: This computer was purchased as a gift for a novice computer user. We cant get her to put it down...

Good deal
- Pros: Great price. Vista Home Premium. Very slick laptop and the finger pad is flat with the case of the laptop. No dust or junk to get caught up in the cracks. Very nice feeling keybaord.
- Cons: The only real con is the amount of USB ports. I am also not a fan of the video out port the way it is recessed. Shouldn't be a problem since this is for a surfing the net and low tech stuff for my parents.
- Other Thoughts: I immediately upgraded the RAM to 4GB and sold the 2GB that came with it online.
Labtop BAD
- Pros: Computer was fast in loading, webpages load fast
- Cons: A problem occurred within the first week of usage, and I am now seeking a solution. There are constant errors. Sometimes computer crashes and physical memory needs dumping. Load it back up and there are missing/deleted files. Laptop create constant Web browsers errors. Overall, kinda annoying laptop to deal with. THEN laptop crashed completely. Details below:
Hello, my toshiba laptop that I recently purchased within the last week has malfunctioned. It does not load. States "Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem: Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer." "File: /boot/BCD , Status: OxcOOOOOOf , Info: An error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data." I checked inside the package and no reboot disc was found.
Perfect for Older Parents' Use
- Pros: Price (380) and feature set pretty much defines a good 'budget laptop'.
- Cons: Nothing really given its intended and current use. Be nice to have a set of recovery disks but at this price I won't complain about having to make them.
- Other Thoughts: I bought this to replace the 10 year old Mac iBook that my parents were using. They check email, do a little web surfing and personal finance, and that's pretty much it. They would have kept the Mac if it hadn't reached its OS upgrade limit.
I left Vista on it and didn't bother to remove any of the bloatware. For their limited needs it performs well and they are quite happy with it. I probably won't bother upgrading it to 7.
