Summary: great
Comment: Easy to set up and very fast. My wife and I are in our 50's and this is our first experience setting up a laptop and it was a snap. The screen resolution is really good and the number keyboard is a real convienence.

Summary: The more I use it, the more I love it
Comment: I needed to update my home computer and the main decision I had to make was whether I wanted a new desktop, an all in one, or a laptop. I decided on a laptop (and in particular this laptop) for several reasons. The first reason was the freedom a laptop offers. This beats both the desktop and the all in one.
The second reason was the ability to connect it to my television. Again this beats both the desktop and the all in one. Just so you know, my wife doesn't consider a desktop to be suitable décor for the living room.
These positives outweighed the negatives. For one thing with a laptop, all your eggs are in a basket that could be dropped or forgotten on the subway. Also, if the LCD screen goes bad you're likely to drop some serious cash on replacing it.
The biggest negative I feel toward laptops is the keyboard and touchpad. The laptops I occasionally use at work have scrunched up keys, and no number keypad. Also, the touchpads need to have their itches scratched in just the right way or they don't move the cursor the way you want them to.
In deed, the first step in choosing this Toshiba was going to the big box store and practicing typing on all the models with number keypads. I made the least number of typing errors with the Toshiba. After that, I looked at the features and the price. After that, I read through the reviews and finally, I decided to buy it from Amazon.
After using this laptop for nearly a month, I'd have to say the more I use it, the more I love it. I do have minor annoyances with the touchpad. Probably every laptop has this issue and I guess I could mess around with the sensitivity and such, but it's not such a big deal to me. It's really cool to watch a movie instantly on my laptop or hook up a VGA cable and watch it on my flat screen TV.
The last little nick I want to mention is the fact that when I first got online with this laptop, I noticed it slowed down and eventually stopped working. I shut down the computer and immediately saw the problem. There were 10 Windows updates! I could not (and dared not) stop the installation process. The first 4 updates took nearly an hour to install; the rest took about 20 minutes. I couldn't use my computer for nearly an hour and half. It's a bummer when you have a new toy and Mr. Softy doesn't let you play with it.
I struggled with the decision to give this laptop 4 stars instead of 5. I truly love this machine, and I highly recommend it. The minor annoyances of the touchpad and a batch of updates for Windows are certainly not unique to this machine, none the less, they do detract from an otherwise stellar machine.

Summary: Great Laptop for the Money
Comment: I have in the past, purchased Dell Laptop Computers and HP Laptops. I purchased this Laptop for my daughter, who prevously only purchased Dell and Mac Products. I must say, she is totally satisfied with this unit. Even though it is just a 15.6 monitor, it still has the numeral keypad on the side. As of yet, the system has given her no problems whatsoever. She is a graphic artist and even though most of her work is done on her Desktop Mac, she has had no problems working with her projects on the Toshiba Laptop. She and I would definitely recommend the Toshiba laptop to anyone.
