"Buy an HP or a Lenovo they actually care about customers and supporting them."
Pros: Seemed like a Good Laptop at first.
Cons: Service and Hard Drive are slow.
Summary: Seemed like a Good Laptop at first.
I liked the Number Pad.
Is Light for a 17 inch notebook.
Screen looked decent unit it died. Higher Resolution would have been nice.
Sound is good for a laptop.
2 GB Ram chips were not available when I purchased unit. So couldn't get to the 4 GB advertised.
Instant media was operated off a Linux partition and seemed to work well.
Heavy power supply.
Hard Drive is slow at 4200RPM.
LCD Screen Died and started a nightmare.
I will NOT buy another Toshiba Laptop. Buy an HP or A Lenovo they actually care about customers and supporting them.
The sad thing is this was a test of their quality to see
If we might start purchasing Toshiba laptops company wide.
Toshiba gave me a number to ship the laptop back, no address.
After driving to 4 different UPS Stores till I got to one that
thought that they could ship it back to Toshiba I found that
I still didn?t have enough info and ended up having to call
Toshiba again. Everywhere I went they said they needed the address
after calling Toshiba and asking for the address I was told absolutely
not. One of the UPS stores on Toshibas list was closed down the other
UPS shipping outlets I visited were authorized but not certified.
I've wasted hours just driving not to mention the time on the phone
and reinstalling things on a new temporary PC.
After several wasted days it was finally with UPS being shipped.
Even with $300+ for the exteded warranty my brand new laptop has been broke for a month now and counting. Parts are still on backorder.
