I purchased a Toshiba laptop due to high rating in Consumer Reports. My experience with laptops is limited, as I have always used a desktop computer. I am very pleased so far, although I wish it were run by Windows XP.

This thing is a true workhorse and could easily be used as one's primary desktop machine. It's very fast, lots of ram and lots of disk space. The price ain't bad either.

You have to add-up capacity in BACKUP, so that there is no CAPACITY problem in BACKUP in fututre. Speed is not to the mark, I thought for.

I absolutely LOVE this laptop. I make websites and usually have a lot of programs open at once and this laptop lets me do just that. With an excellent processor and 4GB of RAM, speed is this laptop's middle name! Also, the 17" screen is beautiful, and glare is usually not a problem. Windows Vista is really not at all as scary as people say it is. I actually love it! And all of my programs that I ran on my Windows XP also ran on my new laptop with Windows Vista and the files transferred with ease! Toshiba is an excellent company with high quality products! *Note* This is pretty dumb of me, but I know others have done it too. If the Web Camera is not nearly as clear as you thought it would be, try pealing off the plastic. You really can't see it but it's there. The face recognition worked a lot better after I did that!

The look and feel is great. Keyboard key layout excellent and the lighted goard and media display is also a nice touch. Vista 64 home edition is very responsive and works well for high end applications. My last toshiba lasted over five years with virtually no problems and was used almost every day. Workmanship and style on the Satellite A355-S6925 is, as always, perfect.

The laptop functions great and has great features, but the keyboard has taken a while to get used to. The keys have a glossy finish so when you are typing it feels as if they are greasy and leaves fingerprints like a crime scene. Toshiba did realize this setback and included a cloth to clean the surface of the keyboard, but its an unnecessary hassle. I did read other review complaining about the keys before i bought it, but the price was too good not to buy it for the specs. Also, I have had some trouble on occasion with the touch pad, but it wasn't anything that a restart couldn't take care of.

i was hard pressed on buying another computer(desktop) until i saw the demonstration on how this laptop makes desktop's obsolete. no more desktop for me as i was so impressed, i bought another toshiba laptop for my wife and with the add on toshiba mouse,she was blown away and declares she too will never want for a bulky desktop and all the wires,the weight,the size and loss of freedom . i will be buying a couple more of these laptops between now and next year

The computer is good value for the money. Was not very satisfied with the graphic capabilities. Would have like to have a higer resolution. Also, was not able to add a second hard drive even though there was an empty bay.

I loved this lap top however, as soon as I received it when I would type it would jump back to the begining or middle of the line and then after 40 days the LCD screen developed a line in it and I returned the unit.

I like very much this computer, as I don't need other extra monitor when I am working at the office like desktop, also is not too heavy or big to take n my backpack for traveling. Keyboard make some noises, maybe is because the high humidity of the tropical conditions are affecting it, I will buy the silicone keyboard protector.

This one has lots of features. It comes with many heolpful different preloaded programs. It does not come with a software disc to help in case of problems. It has a place for S-video plug, but is not wired for it, even though the paper work that came points out S-video. I does weigh over 6 lb. It actually replaced our old HP desktop, and does more.

Concerned about "loose" power cord connection. Disappointed there were no disks for OS software or offers for Windows 7 upgrade. My last computer was a 2 1/2 yr. old Toshiba Satellite that had an overheated motherboard that would be too costly to repair. The features, battery life, new larger shift key, computer screen, speed are great. Would like to see less demo software installed.

I am having difficulties with the keys, when writing within a document the cursor gets lost and goes to another paragraph and you begin writing within the sentence you were writing in and then I found the the mouse part is way too sensitive.

The loptop is ok....one of the problems i am having is using the touch pad...it tends to get stuck and i have to keep playing with the touch pad for it to get unstuck. This makes it frustrating when scrolling down the page or when surfing the internet.
