T already had a large laptop (Toshiba P305D-S8819 with 17.3" screen) and was looking for a still bigger one with a faster CPU and Windows 7 installed. This computer filled that bill.
Among the features I particularly appreciate, are the spill-resistant keyboard and the full HD video resolution. I live in a small one-bedroom condo, and can move this laptop on and off my dining table at will, and can tuck it away when necessary to use the space for something else. I do admit that so far I haven;t had much reason to look into the uses for the pretty blue buttons on the left side of the keyboard, but give me time (which I am sorely in need of, being 83 years of age).

This notebook computer has fast start-up and processing as well as a large screen--useful with certain e-mail systems, excel, etc. though not much with Word. The only problem I have with it is with the keyboard. Maybe I'll get used to it, but I find it's a bit hard to touch type because you really have to press hard on the keys. Also, the touch pad is large & positioned so that I'm touching it inadvertently--messing up my position in the document I'm typing--esp. with Word. Hopefully, it's just different from what I'm used to and I'll get used to it, but right now it's annoying.
