THE FOLLOWING REVIEW IS FOR THE INTEL MODEL NOT THE AMD MODEL OF THIS COMPUTER:

UPDATE MARCH 25: TOSHIBA HAS OFFERED AN UPDATE WHICH WILL ALLOW VIRTUAL PC TO RUN ON THIS COMPUTER. IT’S TOO LATE FOR ME AS I GAVE THIS COMPUTER TO MY DAUGHTER AND PURCHASED A USED LENOVO COMPUTER LAPTOP FROM AMAZON.

We bought this laptop so I could run my beloved Mastercook program to help me do grocery shopping. I also use this computer to run my Wild Ginger sewing pattern software.

I do like how easy it is to find files and other programs using Windows 7. As much as I loved Windows XP, the search function and ease of locating files, is so much better on Windows 7.

The mouse pad on this computer is a bit fast. I did manage to configure it to the slowest speed possible but it’s still mighty fast.

The computer is light in weight, uses the battery efficiently, the display is easy to read, and the computer seems to run cooler than my old HP laptop.

Recommend.

No refund, returned almost immediately because the PC had limited capability, no HDMI, cursor would continually jump to where ever it wanted. It was defective and now they will not refund our money. We have bought a HP at Walmart that works.

I bought this laptop for my daughter’s 21st birthday. After a lot of research and comparing prices I chose the Toshiba. My daughter has absolutely NO complaints after using this computer for the last month. I have no complaints because I ordered on Monday afternoon and it was waiting for me when I got home from work 3 days later—and it was supposed to take 5-7 days for delivery. So not only did I get a good deal, I also got very quick delivery. Thank you Amazon.com for the help in locating this laptop computer!

The L505 was a good choice for me. In the middle of a large dissertation, I had to dump my old beloved 2004 Gateway to keep up with Microsoft’s constant system upgrade demands. The Toshiba is a bit heavy for a laptop but it has a solid feel for my mostly desktop use. Mousepad functionality is spotty but I rely mainly on a mouse. It is fast and (thus far) my McAfee installs happen quickly and quietly in the background without my even noticing. My only complaint is the squat dimensions of screen. The 15.6″ “Tru-bright” screen is nice and bright, but the screen ratio makes it wide and short. If you are a document writer (vice an Excel jockey or primarily an internet surfer) you are giving up a lot of good screen space for documents. The wide dimensions make for other annoyances … the power plug and USB port (only 2) with a thumb drive inserted on the right side require that you keep your mouse-arm splayed wide-right. Why not put these ports in the back? Otherwise, for my $540, this is a great machine. I looked at Dells in the same price range and they seem cheap and plasticky in comparison. Unfortunately, we are getting to the age of disposable laptops, in which it is easier to buy a new one than to upgrade. Perhaps cheap and plasticky, low and squaty, are the wave of future.

Simply put, this is the best laptop I’ve ever owned at a remarkable price. Extremely good specs, screen is large and has good graphics for watching vids, and it has a full-sized keyboard complete with numeric keypad on the side that is extremely helpful if you do a lot of spreadsheet functions. I agree with other posters that the speakers are pretty low volume and sound “tinny” but this isn’t that much of a problem for me since I can just plug in headphones or my Logitech S220 2.1 speakers (another extremely great product) and it sounds great. Overall, I am extremely pleased with this laptop and highly recommend it.
