5.0 out of 5 stars Great Laptop for the money...., January 5, 2009

By	A. Casey "TekSavvy" (FL, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have purchased this Toshiba Satellite Pro as a gift for a loved one and I am seriously impressed. I am a Mac user myself but the last Windows laptop I ordered for myself in 2003 was a Toshiba Satellite Pro and that is why I purchased this one. We instantly downgraded to XP with the included CD and it worked flawlessly. I also added a Gig of ram Crucial for about fifteen dollars and this computer is fantastic. If you want a no-nonsense computer that works well without all of the junk, this is the one.

The keyboard feels great, the laptop feels very light compared to the 15" laptop that we replaced, and the screen is incredible. I/She couldn't be happier.

I am sorry for the other reviewer's problems with Toshiba and the local repair facility. My local repair facility has been excellent over the years and the one time that my system crashed beyond my ability to fix it, Toshiba took care of the bill, it was that simple.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT PURCHASE TOSHIBA!, December 30, 2008

By	J. Douglas "Jddigital" (St Louis, MO USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this laptop for work and after less than six months the hard drive crashed. Ok, I know that this can happen, but it's how it's handled that matters. I called Toshiba who referred me to a local Toshiba-authorized repair center. After two weeks, I was told to call in to see the status of the repair. Instead of replacing the hard drive, the repair center had been directed by Toshiba to replace the motherboard. They did, but the hard drive still wouldn't work. After another two weeks (a full month now), they replaced the hard drive. Unfortunately, Toshiba would not allow their own authorized service center to re-install Windows because they were technically not the owners. I had to order a restore CD as it did not ship with the laptop. When I received the CD, the restore program gave me a "Wrong Machine" error message. On Toshiba's web site, I was informed that this problem was caused with an incompatibility problem between their BIOS and their restore CD and I needed to run a DMI Update Utility which could be downloaded from their web site. I did that and the DMI Update Utility regenerated a "failed to read Platform ID" error message. When I called Toshiba back, they agreed that "this shouldn't happen" and asked that I bring the laptop to a UPS store to have it shipped back to the factory for repair and Windows restore. When I went to the specific UPS store that they referred me to, the staff had no idea how to ship the Toshiba laptop back to Toshiba and couldn't figure it out even after finding the return process in their system and calling their UPS IT department. Finally the UPS store representative gave up and gave me the computer back. I called Toshiba Support back who insisted that the UPS people should know what to do. After 45 minutes, the Toshiba support representative agreed to cancel the original UPS request and create a new Order # and send me a box and label directly. I'm waiting for the return now. I would strongly encourage anyone looking for a laptop to look for another brand.
