good fir the price
By wantdd214
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.

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...

Terrible Value - even worse quality.
By Grutza
First off, you would expect a computer that costs as much as $500 to have a lot of bells and whistles, and if not, at least be able to handle a challenge. Not this laptop though.This laptop costed $500, and if you compare the stats to anything equivalently priced, this gets blown out of the water. It's disappointing that this laptop only comes with 3GB of RAM, why couldn't they just put in the 4th GB? It's not like this board uses triple channel memory or anything. Not only that, but the pre-loaded Windows 7 is only 32-bit, so even if you were to manually upgrade your memory, guess what? You're gonna have to buy a new Windows 7 to utilize the new memory, too.Secondly, the exhaust is ridiculous. A laptop is supposed to go on your LAP, right? Well, when setting this laptop on your lap to type, the exhaust output is directly on your leg. Did I mention that the cooling system is horrible? This laptop literally blows out up to 190 degree Fahrenheit air, right on your leg. The laptop not only causes extreme discomfort, but has actually BURNED me on several occasions! The hair on my legs has been burned off multiple times, and leaves my skin red and blotchy from the burn. So much for using this laptop's portability... they could have at least put the exhaust on backNext, the specs on this laptop say that this computer can easily reach 6 hours battery life without dying...maybe if you're in hibernate mode? Right out of the box my computer would only last for 2 hours maximum, and now that it's older, I'm lucky to get 45 minutes out of it. Not only that, but if you're watching a movie, listening to music, or playing a game, you'll be lucky to see the thing stay alive for more than a half hour... once again, where is the portability?Another thing...the speakers on this laptop: decent, but sub-par. They have a better bass than you'd expect, but of course, the bass muddies out the treble quite often, making it an unpleasant listen. But, if you have external speakers...once again, portability, where are you?Video; the screen is high-quality - no complaints here. However, the output from the VGA cable can be low-quality, and of course, there is no RGB or HDMI ports anywhere on the thing, so you can forget about high-quality video or sound output.One last thing; the touchpad is in an awkward position for right-handers. Your wrist must bend at about a 40 degree angle from comfortable position to utilize the touchpad with your right hand. However, left-handers: you might find this keypad convenient.After ALL of that, I would definitely not recommend this laptop to anyone who wants a high-quality, high-value machine, or anyone who wants to travel. If you find average to poor laptops satisfactory, and don't mind getting burned (literally) then this laptop could be for you!
