5.0 out of 5 stars
So far, so good,

This review is from: Toshiba Satellite A75-S1253 - Mobile Pentium 4 538 / 3.2 GHz - RAM 256 MB - HDD 60 GB - CD-RW / DVD - Mobility Radeon 9000 IGP - WLAN : 802.11b/g - Win XP Home - 15.4" Widescreen TFT 1280 x 800 ( WXGA ) (Personal Computers)
I bought this for $899 on sale and because of the speed of the processor and the other features think it's a good deal. I've only had it for a week now, so there's not too much I can say about how it holds up. I did add an extra 512 MB of memory (the 256 it comes with really slows it down) and find it to be a fast, nice machine.
I don't mind the lack of a 3.5 drive (I do own an external from my old laptop, but don't use it much) and a DVD writer would be nice, but I can do that on my desktop. I love the built in 802.11 support.

I bought this computer last year around February.
Thinking it was a great deal, and heard nothing but amazing reviews about Toshiba. Since I have owned this computer I have had to get it replaced once, im on my 2nd replacement. It has been in repair 5 times. It constantly overheats and the power supply fails repeditly. DO NOT BUY THIS COMPUTER!!!!!!!

Design flaw can lead to lots of repair time,

This review is from: Toshiba Satellite A75-S1253 - Mobile Pentium 4 538 / 3.2 GHz - RAM 256 MB - HDD 60 GB - CD-RW / DVD - Mobility Radeon 9000 IGP - WLAN : 802.11b/g - Win XP Home - 15.4" Widescreen TFT 1280 x 800 ( WXGA ) (Personal Computers)
Mine has been back to Toshiba four times already in the first year. It's going back again for the same reason (See JL32's review above) as soon as I can get back to CompUSA. The motherboard and power socket was replaced last time and it still overheats even when the grills and heat sink are totally clean. The system automatically shuts down. This happens especially if the room temperature gets much above 70 degrees (F) or when I run multiple demanding programs. And this machine never gets used for gaming, mostly internet browsing and writing papers.
UPDATE: Toshiba seems to have found a fix for this serious flaw. Since sending it back to Toshiba in early 2007 it has been actually stable and "symptom free." It is still quite snappy and has not needed repair for that problem after 2 years of daily use.
