Toshiba Satellite X205-SLI5 17-inch Laptop Review

"First I should say that the machine came out of the box and worked perfectly in all regards from the start. It is a work of art - nice to touch and nice to look at. "

"This is my fourth Toshiba laptop, and I have always found them to be stable and hard-working machines. They are reliable and I've never had a single hardware problem in 6 years. That said, Toshibas are usually weighty and can be slower than comparable laptops."

"If you want a desktop PC sitting in your lap, get this. If you want a laptop PC, don't get this. You may think like I did, "Oh, it can't be that big. And, it's a laptop, so I can use it anywhere."Not. You can't easily lift it with one hand. Once you put it down somewhere, you'll need to be motivated to take it somewhere else. "

"I could not be more pleased with my new Toshiba Satellite x205-SLI6 laptop. It is very fast, and way faster than I had expected for a laptop. In fact, it is much faster than my 3.2 GHz single core desktop. This laptop runs Windows Vista Ultimate flawlessly. As for gaming, I ran Call of Duty 4 and Oblivion on the highest settings, and ran Crysis on medium settings--all three looked and played great."

"THIS PRODUCT IS THE BEST CHOICE TO REPLACE A PC. DESPITE THE FACT IT IS VERY HEAVY THE PERFORMANCE IS AMAZING. EXCELLENT FOR GAMES."
