Toshiba are also very good when it comes to customer support, I had one sent back due to a faulty motherboard and the process from start to finish was pleasent - good communications, fast service. The only trouble is trying to navigate round their website to find things like contact numbers! Thats there the Forum comes in, regular member activity to point you in the right direction.
One thing I have learnt about laptops is you generally get what you pay for.
The specs of this are not fantasically blazing quick, but it has enough power to hold its own in 'middle class'.
The only thing I wish this laptop had, was the Tru-Brite screen (glass screen as opposed to the matt plastic screen). It gives a wider viewing angle.
There are variants of this laptop with the Tru-Brite screen so if that is a priorty for you then check the specifics, esp if ordering online.
Hard drive replacement in this is easy peasy, just one screw to get uncover the hard drive (unlike the vaios I have had previously where you had to take half the laptop apart).
Memory replacement is also very easy, nice open access underneath the laptop.
The wireless card in this is Atheros based, which is great if you are planning to use Linux on here as there are already a lot of open source driver development for this chipset.
Cant vouch for the bundled software as that is always the first thing to come off on my laptops, if I remember right there wasnt too much crap preinstalled (again, unlike the Vaios).
Strudy build (dropped mine from anbout 4 feet onto hard tiles with barely a scratch to show for it), and battery lasts a fair amount of time. Plenty of USB connectivity.
Wish it came with a DVD/RW....

All in all, very good value for money, top job would definately recommend.

Quick review of Toshiba Satellite Pro M50
My Satellite Pro bought from PC World has been rubbish. I had to wait 10 weeks for a repair and then when I got it back I had more problems which require a new motherboard. I will never by Toshiba again or deal with PC World. ...

Advantages: easy to navigate around, stylish, compact, light, quick, large memory Disadvantages: short battery life
I'd love to write this review using an impressive load of technical jargon, but I can't, so I'll write it as someone who frequently uses their laptop but rarely ventures into the somewhat frightening realms outside word, itunes, excell etc. I've had this laptop for over a year and I love it. It's never broken or done anything frightening or confusing. It happily and efficiently stores all my music, burns cds, plays dvds, allows me to write essays ... ...my digital photos, connecting me to the internet and allowing me the odd-game of minesweeper. The battery life is too short for my liking, lasting little over 3hours if I'm using it but it is attractive, compact and light to transport around. It's really just so easy to use for someone like me who is of the computer-literate generation and relies on their laptop to store much of their life, but has little learned or extensive knowledge. ...

Advantages: Lots of Features, easy to use Disadvantages: Not many
This is an amazingly great laptop - my brother recently purchased one on from an online laptop shop.
We bought it because my friend had one and I fell in love with it's easy-to-use features, and it's good looks instantly - even a begginer could navigate his/her way through it!
It's outsandinly easy to use (coming from a frequent laptop user,) and it has MANY great features. These features are including: lots of free software included - like an ... ...and, like most people crave, an MP3 player. It also has a lot of memory which is obviously a must have. I'm glad I bought it now, and I reccomend you guys to do so to - that's if you already havn't - you do not know what your missing out on without it! ...
