Great Inexpensive Computer November 19, 2008
12 out of 12 found this review helpful
I purchased this as a gift for my mother. I am pleasantly surprised with this laptop, but I expected to be. Toshiba is one of three PC laptop brands that I would buy. This is based on past experience.
The first thing I noticed was how light this laptop is. Compared to other current model laptops, it may or may not be considered light by some. Compared to the laptop it replaced, it is a featherweight.
For the most part, it is very sturdy and feels solid in your hands. I would like a little more stiffness in the keyboard response though. I am not a soft typist and I tend to pound on the keyboard. The trackpad is flush with the surface of the handrests, which takes some getting used to. It is hard to find without looking first. After a few uses, I plugged in my USB mouse, which is more compfortable anyway.
My biggest complaint is the number of trial apps that this laptop came with. I understand that the reason for the inexpensive price is because of all the additional software that comes pre-installed. I can live with this, as I uninstalled most of it, opting for competing products (such as the virus scanning software, firewall, etc). There were 23 icons on my desktop when I turned this laptop on the first time!
Minor gripes aside, this laptop is fast, includes plenty of space, and looks sleek and refined. It gets a Vista rating of 3.0 according to Microsoft. I am primarily a Mac user. With that in mind, I can say that Vista is not so bad. It is not worth the effort to bring this laptop home just to remove Vista and install XP. Just be sure to turn off the disorienting Aero mouse pointer theme (leave the rest of Aero turned on) and update all software (including third party products such as Adobe Reader). Vista can be quite pleasing to the eyes after a couple of uses.
I would buy this laptop again without question.
