At my age, I need this kind of laptop.

164:10

I look forward to years of use, it has held up well over the years and it fits my needs very well.

168:6

I use this for my tutoring business, and since I'm always bouncing from student to student, it is ideal for portability and battery life (yes, it gets the 8 hours as advertised!).

196:5

Its small enough where I can take it pretty much anywhere, but still has a big enough screen to get everything done.

This netbook went bad on me after 3 days. There is a blank lighted screen when I start and that is all. I am also upset with CR for giving a good rating.

B00KMRGF28_310_A1PZTEOLNEN3ER:0

not a good computer at all.

289:3

The pictures are clear as can be.

I paid for extra memory and the 17-inch screen, as well as the top of the line DVD and CD burners. I custom ordered the machine from HP and could NOT understand the techie due to his accent. Finally was able to reach a young lady in California and ordered the machine and was subsequently given a delivery date. The leather carrying case, keyboard and mouse arrived in two days from Memphis warehouse. The computer was two weeks late in delivery because HP forgot to complete the required import paperwork. My laptop cost approximately $2,300 and DIED after only 2-years, 10-months and 18-days of use. Although my model was listed as recalled, HP denied my claim. Accordingly, I have decided to NEVER purchase another HP product (my five year old Compaq) lasted 5-years before the hard drive crashed. I visited the Apple Store and was impressed with the 17-inch MacBook Pro. The quality, engineering design and warranty are superior--covers damage from dropping the laptop. If the number of patrons in the Apple store are any indication, HP and other PC manufacturers need to take note.

Summary: Spend your money elsewhere

59:3

A tip for people looking into this computer: DO NOT BUY IT save up a bit more money and buy a computer that will last.

I bought this laptop the moment unibody product came to the market. I also bought one for my wife, and 3 for my office. They are wonderful, but very dangerous when it comes to emitting heat. I burned my leg, after lifting it from my desk, and for less than 5 second putting it on my lap to clean my coffee table, so I can place it there. I had to call Apple 19 times (each time 40 to 75 minutes on the phone), and take it to their store for evaluations, and diagnostics, 5 times. This is what they told me: It heats up, and that is the reason we no longer call them laptops, and simply categorize them as portables. You might think, I am new in this game, but I am a gadget lover, and have had more than 2 dozens laptops in the past 15 years, and none gets this hot, that fast. I also experience the same with my MacBook Air. So you might ask, what did Apple do for me? For my burn thigh which has put a permanent mark on my skin (it happened 7 months ago) they offered me an ITouch 8Gig (you know it is a bit insulating when a company this rich, offer a loyal customer like me, a bottom of their product line as a gift for events like this). Steve Jobs, probably needs help and donations, and cannot afford a reasonable offers for people that truly are trying to support his baby. The lesson learned here is: It does not pay to by this loyal to any brand, since all of them are there to simply to make as much money as possible, as fast as they can, and in this day and age, the customer no longer is right all the times. Sad very SAD.

155:4

TOSHIBA WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THIS PROBLEM.

Ever since I bought this laptop, so far I've experience nothing but constant break downs of the laptop and bad customer services I received over the phone with toshiba customer services hotlines. I constantly had to send my laptop in for services every 3 months and it always seems to be the same problem that they said they had already fixed. Toshiba customer services will indirectly deal with your problems by constantly tranferring you from one country to another, and I am not kidding you, I called different hours of the day and you'll get someone else from another country trying to get you to tell them your life story all over again, since they make it sound like they don't have your history list of your calls right in front of them. It's a long and tirring process that after a while it seems like their game plan was to wear you out so you would want to give up on contacting them. And at one point, they blame me for installing a bad memory stick when I upgrade my memory for the first time during my purchase of the laptop (I bought the memory stick they recomended). Long story short, since I experience so many problems with my laptop every since I bought it from day one, I didn't ask for a new laptop or a refund of what I pay for a crapy laptop, but just an extension of my laptop warranty for another year, they made a big deal of out that and after so many calls and complaints about their products and services, they finally gave in. Was this product worth my time and money to ever want to purchase another products that is toshiba or relating to toshiba? Probably not ever again. I'll rather be out of date then spend more money on toshiba. Remember to do your research first before consider buying a toshiba product.

256:3

I really wish I had done this years ago.

B00KMRGF28_54_A3ODG9PLY4Z27Y:0

This things run smoothly for its price, and the battery life seems to go on forever.

317:3

The processor screams, and because of the unique way that Apple OSX 16 functions, most of the graphics are routed through the hardware rather than the software.

306:0

I get a ton of compliments on its size, and speaking as someone who regularly commutes on a bus, I can attest to the fact that this is the perfect size computer if you're restricted to the width of your body for computing room.

277:2

The screen takes some getting use to, because it is smaller than the laptop.

89:6

No, tey don't even support their own bios and it "could be a problem with the bios" How can a company that makes a fairly decent product get away with such insanity??!!

B0096VDM8G_65_A1AQ8JT2A3UWMY:13

7.Expensive.

B00FU83YWS_205_ALTYOQRHM0AP7:2

Below average on the w-fi adapter which I'm still trying to get to the bottom of.

B00AH4A950_10_A3H2VORR2TBEXA:1

I can't put a protector to make presentation...

371:0

This laptop serves all my needs.

104:3

So I called Compaq, and after being on the phone for 3 hours, i finally got a replacement which I shouldn't have had a problem getting since it was under warranty.

389:0

What a great little laptop.

45:5

It may take a little getting used to but you don't have to worry about viruses or other headaches.

Let me start with the good:So awesome. Great OS, fabulous improvements to the existing line bumping up the processor speed and adding the thunderbolt port. This is my second MacBook. The first one I had was a 2006 model, not the Pro. I fell in love with it. This one has had the same effect. I had upgraded my old MacBook to Lion, so I kind of knew what I was getting, but hadn't been able to enjoy some of the awesome new multi-touch features. The improvements to the OS have been relatively gradual, but substantive. The feel of this machine compared to the old MacBook is far superior. The Unibody construction is solid, sleek and beautiful. It is everything I'd hoped it would be from a look and feel standpoint, but somehow a bit more sturdy. For the not so good, I got the stock screen - which is VERY glossy. It's still beautiful and has better color reproduction than I could ever expect from a notebook. The reflectiveness of the display is only a minor inconvenience if you work in a controlled-lighting environment like me (I prefer it dark) or if you can crank up the brightness. My real problem with it? The statement of 7 hour battery life is not just mere exaggeration -- it's a lie. I challenge anyone to show proof that through anywhere near normal use can get more than 2.5 hrs out of it. The first full charge of this battery got me only about 2 full hours. Enabling the battery timer is useless. The "Time remaining" goes from 4 hours plus to less than 2 hours over the span of about 10 minutes. It's a joke. It's so bad that I'm thinking I only got half a battery or something. I know what 7 hrs of battery looks like. This ain't it. My only other complaint is that it gets really hot.:-) If you buy this - don't go into it expecting 7 hrs of battery life, and you'll be perfectly satisfied.

349:3

Oh and if thats not bad enough it doesn't come with a recovery cd so you can make one if you know how to or buy one if you buy it the cost is $25 for two cds.

B00D7Z84OY_3_A3Q8WSIN4LWVLK:8

But the touchpad is soooooooooo big that whenever I am typing, my palm touches some part of it and then the cursor goes somewhere else and it's really annoying.

257:8

I use iphoto all the time, which is a great program for anyone who is into photography - amateurs and experts alike.

312:0

It really is perfect for work and play.

88:2

I am taking back today.

73:1

tons of bloatware and junk programs.

B00KMRGF28_193_A20GPA6RDO8DT7:7

Start up is fine maybe 20 secs at most, but then to get pages to load on internet is molasses at times.

234:4

Web access through the 3G network is so slow, it's very frustrating and VERY DISAPPOINTING.

122:1

Weaknesses:A bad videocard!

B00FU83YWS_12_A35C5C6W0TIZA8:5

The cords always feel like they are in my way.

300:5

I am totally satisfied with my little toshie!

24:13

I would  say if you want to buy one of these machines be careful.

B00KMRGF28_49_A23AEXWHKWJSJ2:1

I can't believe this was just $250

154:8

I have Vista, so I am unable to install and uninstall  some programs.

19:0

it is the worst computer dell ever made.

320:1

THIS LAPTOP WAS BAD FROM THE FIRST DAY OF USE----BROUGHT IT BACK TO STORE FOR RETURN OF MONEY.

B0096VDM8G_47_ADVH60401PIPV:0

Outstanding laptop and very well built.

11:10

The OS takes some getting used to especially after being a Windows user for so long but the learning curve is so worth it!

354:3

I'm very impressed.

122:8

I was said it's videocard.

328:1

Can listen to my music and watch my videos with ease and with a great display.

24:7

When I got the computer back and realizwed it still was not correct HP told me it was out of warranty and now it was my problem.

B00KMRGF28_314_APXO9NLLX6Q8X:1

The Thing That You Insert CDs Into Won't Open.

189:17

They are so realistic I am just speechless.

92:1

I agree with the previous comment that ASUS TECH SUPPORT IS HORRIBLE WHICH IS A CON IN MY OPINION.

B00KMRGF28_374_AS24VWQPFK1HB:7

Don't expect it to take good pictures or video.

B00FU83YWS_37_A1BEVTJDXGMJ5I:1

It is quiet runs smoothly.

288:9

Had some trouble finding a case that it would fit in.

B00KMRGF28_185_A1JE1DCYMIWKJ4:5

Still getting use to Window 8.

B0096VDM8G_65_A1AQ8JT2A3UWMY:12

Could lose another pound or two.

319:2

This is a great computer.

239:9

Bottom line, I doubt you'd be overly disappointed if you invest in this machine.

122

Strengths:Well-shaped Weaknesses:A bad videocard! Posted Nov 8, 2010 - Two weeks ago I bought this notebook. What can I say. The first programm I switched on was a game for my children. After 20-30 min the screen of the notebook switched off. It was still working, but there was nothing on the screen. I was said it's videocard. Very disappointed! Didn't expect to repair it at once! Going to bring it to service today. Don't buy this model.

384:3

I called Toshiba and they want me to be without my laptop for about two weeks while they look at the problem.

B0096VDM8G_72_AOGYUDXOO03Q4:3

Con: Hate that it has no disk drive.

374:11

Oh and it has word and stuff but its a trial verion so after about a month or so when you go to open it it asks for a product key which didnt come with the computer and even after clicking cancel it wont let you use it at all I use the old word processer which works good.

201:0

The apple MacBook is the best investment that I have ever made.

B00D7Z84OY_19_A2KZTN24NDPI8P

Look and feel is good. I am experiencing the system little slower than what I have expected. And processor feels pressured even though I run medium scale programs, watching the way exhaust speed increases.

39:6

I also like that you can scroll down in a window using two fingers on the trackpad.

130:5

They say sorry out of warranty.

234:1

VERY disappointing:

257:6

The graphics on this computer are also stellar - very clear and vivid.

196:0

My MacBook is probably the best investment I have ever made.

298:0

Waiting for the i7 was well worth it, great value for the price.

Let's just get this out of the way, I love Apple! So this review might be a tad bit bias. But the Macbook is the best! It is super easy to use. All you have to do is turn it on and it works. It is very durable, I am pretty rough when it comes to electronics and it has taken it all with no reprecutions yet. I don't do any high tech stuff on it, just write papers, check mail, and sometimes play games, so I can't reccomend it if you are in the computer field. But if you are in the computer field you probably wouldn't be here.:) In the past four years I've had it I have never once gotten a virus. I did have to replace the battery once, but that was only a couple months ago and it's been working perfect ever since. I would definitely reccomend this if you are in the market for an easy to use, stylish, fun, awesome computer. Also it is very good for college students who just need a reliable, easy to use computer. Hope this helped!

139:4

Guess I'll stay away from HP.

29:6

The macbook rarely requires a hard reboot.

289:7

It also came with a built it web cam which is great because I can see an communicate with my family members back home.

246:1

i use my mac all the time, i love the software, the way it takes a short time to load things, how easy it is to use and most of all how you don't have to worry about viruses.

B00KMRGF28_49_A23AEXWHKWJSJ2:0

GREAT value laptop!

B0096VDM8G_29_A1JFXUCXT356UK:6

So far I haven't lost any quality or information.

41:9

Still, this laptop is perfect for all day use at school and work.

B00KMRGF28_168_A3TKNSIFQ0WOEE:0

This laptop is amazing!

B00KMRGF28_387_A2CWJW76X1NX01:0

I like the design rather sleek and light.

54:2

And having to deal with the company has been a even worse nightmare.

332:2

I'm stuck w/ a broken computer.

220

I purchased this netbook after my original Toshiba laptop crashed right after the warranty expired. Three weeks after I bought the netbook, the screen quit working. I baby my electronics so I know for a fact it was defective and not anything that I did to it. Overall I feel this netbook was poor quality, had poor performance, although it did have great battery life when it did work.

306:5

I wouldn't play a first-person shooter with this, mind, but if you wanted to run MS Office, email, chat, download a video, listen to music from a certain fruit-named music store, and were looking for a highly portable yet powerful netbook to do that all in, I'd highly recommend checking this out.

32:6

Another issue I have with it is the battery.

73:3

keys are all in weird places and is way too large for the way it is designed.

B00KB3MXH4_22_A106YGESUYA4BP:0

This laptop is amazing!

I would like to tell you about the best laptop I just got from Mac. I work in film editing and post production, so I need a laptop that not only has power, but memory and speed as well. My mac laptop is fabulous in both areas. It gives me the power and speed that I need to run all the programs I use to edit. The Final Cut Pro on this laptop is so fast and easy, and I can use this to seemlessly transfer all my work to my home computer, which is also a mac. I would buy one of these for every person in my office if I could. In my line of work, I often have to take work home, and this makes it so easy. I do transcription work on the side, and the flatline keyboard makes typing quick and easy as well. The apple care has never failed me, and I expect it to be the same for this computer as well. I will only buy apple laptops from now on.

283

Screen is awesome, battery life is good. Really like the textured surface which shows no fingerprints. Good laptop for the money. Speakers don't get that loud, but good enough.

B00FU83YWS_200_A2P9XOT1E1YQZ0:0

A good value for the money.

354:0

This is a great little computer for the price.

160:1

The service I received from Toshiba went above and beyond the call of duty.

B00KMRGF28_158_A290OAUA8EAMP3:1

Works at a decent speed.

289:8

Clear picture on it and everything.

1:10

DEFINITELY recommended!!!

B00FU83YWS_35_A2OBBREWRCQJX

Great Laptop! Bigger screen than expected, laptop with a desktop design that is really nice to use for all types of usage, including programming/editing

386:2

Battery life needs more life.

177:1

Might not make the avid gamer happy but I don't really think that is what this computer is designed for.

289:12

Im very happy with this computer!
