This laptop has many cool aspects to it, the larger screen, the portable desktop feel to it, however not even 1 year after I bought this laptop it started randomly shutting off for no reason. I lost data all the time because it was never known when the laptop would or would not work, so then I started to save everything every 5 minutes or so which became extremely annoying. I had bought a 3 year service plan with Best Buy, so I figured I would try to keep the laptop for 3 years until it was up. ... Read More

I had one problem and I shipped this item 3 times (each of which took them 1 month) and they couldn't fix it. They didn't even change one part of the laptop. I am going to agree with others and say DO NOT BUY TOSHIBA laptop just because of their customer service.
I would recommend someone who wants to buy a notebook computer to read a consumer digest or something like that and see the ratings on customer service/satisfaction. These are all electronic devices and all of them at one ... Read More

If you buy this laptop, it would be very wise of you to buy one of those cooling pads with the fans in them. The laptop itself is friggin awesome, wireless everything! Nice size screen, and very clear. I have never had a single problem, other than the heat it generates. I would recommend it only with the cooling pad. Oh and also, I could not find a suitable case either (below) and had to settle with a piece of carry-on luggage myself... Case Logic :)

This laptop generates way too much heat. It has a built in feature to automatically shut down if it gets too hot.IT SHUTS DOWN ALL THE TIME WITHOUT WARNING!Toshiba you have a major design flaw here!BTW - I did install the BIOS patch that was suppossed to correct the problem - ha - whatever, the laptop still heats up and shuts down without warning!

I bought this computer and within 6 months the motherboard needed replacing - it has now been in the shop for two months waiting on Toshiba to ship the replacement motherboard ($700 for the part and $200 for the service). Each week, the date of arrival of the motherboard changes and I have since bought another computer as I have no idea when (if ever!) Toshiba will supply the part. Considering the cost of the computer, I am irate that the repair is both so costly and so time-consuming. I will never ... Read More
