Toshiba Satellite A505-S6004 TruBrite
product details
Great things about the Satelite:
+ 16" wide screen display - it's beautiful
+ Fast, starts up in a couple of seconds and no waiting on your apps
+ Huge 500GB hard drive.
+ Windows 7, I wasn't expecting much, but no problems, runs without issues
+ Microsoft Office, installed, free for 60 days
+ Huge high quality speakers, this machine is music and movie ready.
+ Attractive
+ A little heavy but not bad for its size.
+ Toshiba is very reliable
+ Motion detector locks the hard drive in place when it detects the laptop is being jostled around.
Could be better:
> Light above track pad too bright
> Keys are LOUD
> Norton installed and bugs you about paying every time you log on
Overall, this is a great laptop. SOme of the display lights are a little bright and the keypad is noisy. I can forgive that though because this laptop is so fast. I'm never waiting anymore. Windows 7 is proving to be very reliable and easy to use.
Initially, the touch pad was "helping" me and this was really annoying. To turn off some of the trackpad features that do things for you: Go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound, under the Devices and Printers section click on Mouse. Another dialog pops up, CLick on the Device Settings tab, then on the Settings button. From there you can set up the touch pad the way you want it.
I upgraded my laptop to a 12 cell battery and that battery lasts about 7 or 8 hours. If you can afford the extra battery, it's worth it. THe 12 cell does take about 2 hours to charge though.
My friends who work in computer repair say they get less Toshibas in the shop than any other brand and highly recommend them.
Buy a large laptop case to carry it in. It will not fit in a standard size case.
Norton is slow and a pain, I uninstalled it and installed Vipre.
