I was looking for new technology, full size key board, big screen, software included at a great price and found it all with my new Toshiba satellite. At least that is what I thought when it arrived, however after using the Laptop I have several issues, sound quality and the fact it is only 32 bit and not 64 bit. I will have to buy external speakers for better sound as well as buy additional memory so for me more money as I can not return because my husband is a recycle freak and discarded the box. Learn from my mistake, ask questions before you buy especially about the operating system. I am on the Toshiba waiting list for the free upgrade to windows 7 however it could take 6 months before the software arrives. What i thought was a great deal turned into a slow road to building the machine I could have bought ready to go. Too bad for me.
Good deal August 24, 2009

I got the toshiba L505-6946 - can't see on amazon - difference is that it has 2.0 mhz intel chip and no seperate graphics card. very happy with the machine, and having shopped around a lot, nothing near the price with same specs (Aug 09). I bought it partly based on my previous toshiba and this one has been good so far. toshiba generally adds some good software and functionality from the company. no issues at all, so can't comment on customer support. on the down side, laptop is about 6 pds - bit heavy but that's what you expect for this price and 16 inch, so depends on what you attach the most importance to. Screen has a really beautiful picture and clarity, which was my main concern. no speed issues even with vista, once i cleared all the muck out of the start-up.
main complaints (which is why i am writing this review, actually):
- speaker output really poor, especially if playing music/videos.
- microphone quality basically unusable.
so, if i want to use skype or decently watch videos/music, i need to carry good external headset, something i did not want to do. the sound output and mic on my work HP is much much better. this has a camera, but i don't really need it as much as sound. in fairness, maybe not enough to drop a star for, considering the price, but does irritate me enough to only give 4 star, since this was a key part of my buying decision over a compaq that i saw on special...
good fir the price August 14, 2009

I just got this laptop because I was moving and had to ship my desktop ahead of time. I paid $600 for this computer and have been very surprised at the performance of it so far. the wireless works great, video looks good too. comes with a free upgrade to windows 7. basically if you are looking for a decent laptop for not a lot of money this works very well.
