I bought this laptop about a month ago having broken the keyboard on my old advent by spilling milk on it - silly me! On the plus side though my advent laptop was old and slow so it's not like I broke something that was really good. I'm a photographer by trade so when it came to looking for a replacement laptop I wanted something with good memory, fast processor and for a price that wasn't going to bankrupt me. Now I'm not very good with the technical side of computers so I got my boyfriend to help me look for a suitable replacement and we ended up settling on this one. As far as price goes I would say this could be considered a mid range laptop. I ...  Read the complete review

I've owned many laptops before, but I think this is one of the most practical ones that I have ever had. Everything about it is great. The size of the laptop, the large amount of ram, the ample space on the hard drive, and the dvd-writer are important items in what i was looking for in a laptop. This laptop is a little lighter than previous models that I have used. The battery holds a good charge and gives you ample time to use the laptop the way you need it when you are mobile This laptop was installed with the Windows 7 operating system, which took me some time to get used to. I admit, I was afraid to switch to the new OS at first, but after I used this ...  Read the complete review

*Konichiwa* Nothing against the Japanese. Koreans. Taiwanians. or any other nationality. But I hate their intrusive software, and lousy, complicated, male-orientated Operating System. WHY do manufacturers always ASSUME that you are part of a great big commercial conglomerate? WHY do you need a hundred languages, when you only write and read English, in the UK? WHY do they insist on putting myriad Microsoft software onto a pc or laptop, notebook, whatever this is called (?) which normal silver surfers like us will never use, don't understand, and don't want clogging up our CPU (and yes, I do understand that one) They refuse access to basic things you ...  Read the complete review

I bought this Toshiba Satellite laptop and to be honest, i am sorry. The main problem for me is the keyboard. I am typing this review on a keyboard on which it is very difficult to hit the keys you want. The return, or 'enter' key, arrow keys, and space bar are way too small. The number keypad might be useful for some users but it seems to have taken up all the space. Using the laptop is very hard as you spend most of your time trying to hit the right keys. I am one of those people who usually type without looking, but on this laptop it is almost impossible to do that - feels like the keys are all in different places. Besides the keyboard, the laptop seems fine, very ...  Read the complete review

It is a very good computer. The keyboard is fantastic! The spec's of the computer can very well suit designers, and can absolutely suit the average computer user. The sound is not so excellent as I hoped it would be, but it is not horrible. The battery life of the laptop is very average compared to other laptops. I suppose you could just buy a different one though. Pros and cons by aznbiggie616 Pros: The computer is very fast! Even for my standards, as I am a computer gamer, and we NEED fast PCs! Cons: 1 - The computer comes with a few softwares that I would rather not have. For example: Although Windows 7 is great, I myself, am an ...  Read the complete review
