Out of the box this unit worked flawlessly. This is the most attractive notebook I’ve ever owned. Someone across the room heard a music video I was watching and said “that computer has great sound.” It is great to have my numeric keypad back for crunching numbers.
Mobile broadband and 16GB flash drive USBs worked as expected. So did WiFi and a hardwired network. The 17.3″ video is just awesome. This is my second, larger, notebook and I’ll never go smaller again.
Very satisfied, great price and fast, free shipping from Amazon.

But not from Best Buy. My other laptop suffered some kind of disease and we’re away from home, so I opted for a “cheap” replacement. 4 gigs of Ram (!!) and room for 4 more and a 320 gig hard drive are among the things that make this an outstanding buy. It’s BIG – and that’s either it’s strength, if you want a big screen and full size keyboard AND keypad; or it’s weakness if you like small……..
I’m a great fan of Amazon, but before you buy this gem, you might want to run over to your nearest Office Depot – it’s currently on sale for about a hundred bucks less……..

This laptop has impressed me so far. Not only is it inexpensive, but it seems solidly built. It is very quiet. The screen is huge and looks great. It is powerfully enough for all of my home PC needs. The only 2 negatives are the weak sound quality (not unexpected in a laptop) and the touchpad buttons, which make a noticeable clicking noise when you press them. If you can live with those minor annoyances, I recommend considering this laptop for your home PC.

I was first looking at smaller sub-notebooks in the 11.6″ – 12.1″ screen range. However, after trying that size out in a store, I realized 12″ was an incredibly small screen. This laptop’s screen is amazing. The size is perfect, the brightness is excellent, and the colors are vivid. Windows 7 Home Premium runs very well (you can tell the AMD dual-core processor helps with multi-tasking). Incredibly, even with a 17.3″ screen, the laptop is very light and portable. The full keyboard with numeric pad is a great addition.
The only downside to the laptop is that it does not include HDMI out. This was disappointing considering that the screen is an HD display. It does, however, include VGA out, plenty of USB ports, memory card slot, and an SATA port.
If you are looking for a budget friendly large screen laptop, I would certainly suggest the Toshiba L555D-S7005. Also, there is a similar size/processor Gateway laptop in the same price range. However, before deciding on the Gateway, you should compare the customer service and warranties between Toshiba and Gateway. Toshiba definitely wins in this category. Gateway was bought out by Acer in 2007 and they are still getting their act together internally.

Great screen for viewing videos and site at 1600 by 900 resolution. May be a bit of a magnet for fingerprints but still a fast and great looking machine with plenty of RAM and CPU to run pretty much anything.
