4.0 out of 5 stars Good Budget Notebook - NOT for gamers
I've had this notebook for almost 5 months now, and for the most part I'm very happy with it. The only glaring negative I can think of, as with most notebooks, is the battery stamina which lasts only about an hour at full charge. Also, my system has slowed down considerably after I've installed apps and media drivers over the past few months, so it's time for a...

2.0 out of 5 stars $1100 Computer for teens
I just bought this computer from the Army Air Force Exchange. I am returning it after I remove my personal data.

My problems started with the USB ports. The computer has three USB ports, but only 1 USB Controller. I had a Web Cam, Ext Sound Card (w/ext power) and tried to connect my Memorex Thumb Drive. It locked the computer up. After locating the above...

2.0 out of 5 stars $1100 Computer for teens, May 10, 2005
This review is from: TOSHIBA Satellite M35X-S114 Notebook PC (Personal Computers)
I just bought this computer from the Army Air Force Exchange. I am returning it after I remove my personal data.

My problems started with the USB ports. The computer has three USB ports, but only 1 USB Controller. I had a Web Cam, Ext Sound Card (w/ext power) and tried to connect my Memorex Thumb Drive. It locked the computer up. After locating the above deficiency in the engineering, I attempted to attach the 3 items to a externally powered USB Hub, with the same results. I was willing to work with this due to the reasonable price, but started finding that the software (Office 2003 - Teacher/Student Edition & Quicken 2004) that was installed were trial versions, that would have to be upgraded within 60 days. There is an abundance of software that keeps popping up to be loaded/DL'd (note; you can't tell when something is being DL'd, looked like computer locked up). Suspect that these may be trial versions as well. I would recommend it for a 15 y/o, if you have S/W already on hand to install. This experience was like buying a lot of Pop-up ads (a Toshiba Ad Campaign). I suspect that you would end up spending another $300 on S/W to get this up to a typical S/W package that comes with a New Computer.

The only glaring negative I can think of, as with most notebooks, is the battery stamina which lasts only about an hour at full charge. Also, my system has slowed down considerably after I've installed apps and media drivers over the past few months, so it's time for a reinstall.

As for claims by other reviewers that Toshiba doesn't provide an install disk, I don't know what these people are talking about. If you buy it new, the install disk is provided in the box. If it's not, get your money back. Nobody in their right mind should be content with a new notebook or PC not including the original install software.

Bottom line, if you're looking for a basic laptop for working on-the-go, and not interested in having gaming capabilities, this Toshiba Satellite is for you. However, if you're looking for something with video capabilities, look at the higher level models that include an NVidia video card.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good product, June 2, 2005
This review is from: TOSHIBA Satellite M35X-S114 Notebook PC (Personal Computers)
For the price this is a great unit. I have read some of the reviews on it and I dont recall the last time I got the actual software for the operating system since 98 windows anyways. With xp you really dont need it anyways its internal so if need be it can be reloaded from the unit itself.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great notebook for price, July 8, 2005
This review is from: TOSHIBA Satellite M35X-S114 Notebook PC (Personal Computers)
I bought this item from Curcuit City on 4th July Holiday weekend

It was an open box item that I paid $450 for after rebates + free printer+ free wireless mouse + 18 months Interest free credit. Hard to beat deal.

It looks and performs great

2.0 out of 5 stars no original OS disks provided..., June 1, 2005
This review is from: TOSHIBA Satellite M35X-S114 Notebook PC (Personal Computers)
Toshiba does not supply the original Microsoft operating system disks with their computers. This is a huge negative! They only supply recovery disks from which you can only revert your system to the way it was on day one.
