Toshiba Satellite Pro L500

Advantages: Fast, wide range of extra features, comprehensive instruction manual
Disadvantages: Other than the hefty price tag, none at all

...Please note: I am reviewing the L500-1RG model (specifications can be found here: http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&BVUseBVCookie=yes&PRODUCTID=1080824). This particular model has been discontinued, however this review is still of relevance to the rest of the L500 series (in particular, the L500-1RJ). I'd like to start by pointing out that this laptop does not actually belong to me - it's my papa's. Despite this, I use it the most (even though I have a desktop at his house and a laptop of my own). I will try to review this laptop as comprehensively as possible but I am a limited user so don't have access to all of it's features. Anyway, without boring you further with details of access rights, here is my review: Speed The Toshiba Satellite Pro L500 is...

Supermarket surprise

Advantages: fast, easy to use and lots of features
Disadvantages: none so far

...Toshiba Satellite L300D-13S Its not often you find a great deal on electrical items at your local supermarket they are more well known for the bogof deals on food, so you can imagine me and my hubbies surprise when we were shopping in Morrison?s and saw a little stand with a few cards attached advertising mobile phones and laptops. Not only was it a surprise to see they were selling laptops, but they were all Toshiba laptops, not an unknown make at a cheap price, but a very well known make at an unbelievable price of £279.00 ! My hubbie had been looking for a new laptop for a while and here it was a Toshiba Satellite L300D-13S for £279.00. I personally would have bought it there and then, but he is the cautious type and wanted to have a look at Curry?s and Comet to compare prices. I was nearly jumping up and down saying ? It...

Toshiba Satellite Pro A60

Advantages: Sturdy design Nice Blue colour Get a lot for your money
Disadvantages: Overheating/crashing problems experienced Memory upgrade was necessary Required a lot of tweaking to get 'right'

...The Toshiba Satellite Pro A60 laptop is ideal for entry level home users, and possibly students who have some time on their hands to sort stuff out. I wouldn't say it was suitable for the lower end of the business market, as Toshiba seem to be targeting with this product. I could be wrong however, maybe I was just unlucky! I have had mine for 8 months now, after previous satellite old faithful, which I had owned for about 7 years, gave up the ghost in the middle of a project, and I needed a cheap laptop quickly. I was impressed by the blue design which veers away from the boring black/grey you're used to seeing on the budget end notebooks. For the budget it was a toss up between this or a Dell, and in the end I decided to go for the Tosh which wasn't the bottom end of the scale like the Dell was for the same money. Due to...
