Advantages: Durable, functionality, higher quality parts Disadvantages: Sligt glitch with keyboard
...laptop (along with most other Toshiba laptops) is really a great value. It is very durable and I have never had any problems with it. The only thing is a minor glitch that can be easily avoided-- if you push the right shift key and the M key at the same time, it registers as enter for some odd reason. Other than that, this laptop is perfect for anyone. I unfortunately sold mine to get a newer, more updated laptop (I wish I still had it, because I ...

Advantages: All the basic functions with comfort and speed Disadvantages: Nothing fancy - you get what you pay for
Toshiba Satellite L35-S1054 Overall this laptop is worth what you pay for it, as long as you don't have higher than basic expectations. Paying for an extended warranty is well worth the price. After receiving this laptop as a gift and using it for less than one year, the screen gave out. I started trying to resolve the wavy lines by putting pressure in an upper corner of the screen. This made it necessary to work with only one hand which was unacceptable. ... ...The screen finally went "black" and nothing could be seen. I can only assume the computer was running as it was supposed to, but because I could not see anything on the screen I can't swear to it.
Taking the computer to an authorized dealer was necessary for fixing this problem. A technician mentioned this model was known for having this particular problem with the screen. Once that was replaced, all was well.
The software that came with this model ...

Advantages: Performance, screen resolution, value for money Disadvantages: Glossy top prone to scratching
The Toshiba Satelite is an excellent laptop and also a great value for its price. It comes with everything you need you can imagine. I particularly like the large 17 inch screen which has excellent clarity, even in bright light and the modern and professional look and feel that Toshiba seemed to have grasped when designing this baby. It is also surprisingly portable for a desktop replacement and actually weighs the same as many 15.4 inch laptops ... ...your lap. The speakers are also fine for every day use, whilst the built in web cam and bluetooth capabilities are real bonuses. I also like the fact that the fans and heat ducts on the side rather than underneath allowing for air flow even when resting on your lap.
The only slight disadvantage is the outside top is prone to scratching and marking, even in a purpose built carrying case. I have overcome this by placing it into the case upside down ...

Advantages: Looks nice, good memory and price Disadvantages: warranty was worthless
I had this notebook and it started to go bezerk. It wouldn't accept any typing and would only work with the mouse. I called the tech support because it was still under warranty. They told me it was a software glitch and tried to walk me through the fix. After about 1 1/2 hrs of frustration I was told to send it back. They sent a box to send it back with. I complied and within days of sending it UPS, and 2 days of calling them and asking about it, ... ...turned to frustration when I realized the notebook was as I sent it. I called thier 1800 # and was told that there was an unidentified liquid in the unit, most likely animal urine. My laptop stayed on nmy bedroom desk and I have a cat but he sure didn't "Go" on my desk. I was livid and asked why they didn't call or contact me to tell me or offer to allow me to pay for repairs. I was told they could fix it in a repair shop and the closest was in Rome ...
