...there are some shortfalls. The toshiba software is a little annoying and does slow the machine down a little, and sometimes doesn't work. For example, you can't change the screen brightness and or you can't lock the computer and it wont shut down. The headphone port placed at the front of the laptop below the trackpad is quite odd and I am always knocking into it, and resting on it when I am using the laptop. It also doesn't fare well when watching ... ...by the way) it can get in the way. The laptop is also rather creaky, and there is some bending of the plastic in certain areas. The screen also seems to be comming slightly loose, after 2 months of use. And the keyboard has worn down quite quickly, more quickly than I would have expected.
The screen brightness when at full is also a little dim than some other laptops, but the brigthness is sufficient.
The screen is also not the best of quality ...

Advantages: Very Durable Disadvantages: Processor a little small
A laptop that is hugely durable, i have taken it on many business trips, and it has survived in my luggage bags with merely a few scrapes on the outer casing, would definitely recommend this to a user that travels alot.

The laptop is very user friendly, with easy access for any maintenance ... ...quite a good pickup range. I find that this laptop is best used for word processing etc and it weaknesses is dealing with multimedia applications such as photoshop, dream weaver etc, the processor just cant seem to handle programs like these., other than that it is a good all round laptop and ideal price for students. ...
