Rating: - This laptop is great!!
So far so good. This laptop is meeting all my expectations. Delivery is fast and very efficient. I would recommend buying this product everytime.
Rating: - Fantastic little laptop
This is a great laptop for our business. We use it for Quickbooks, email and the internet. It was difficult to "downgrade" to Windows XP (you need serial ATA drivers) but after that it's been a fast, powerful addition to our computer family. The one drawback we had was the lack of a parallel port (printer port) but we simply bought a USB printer and now things are fine.
I don't think you'll find a better laptop in the under 700.00 range anywere. Dual core is a plus.
Rating: - Great laptop for cost-conscious, undemanding users
I have the A215, it seems to be identical to the A205 except the A215 has less hard drive memory and has a AMD processor so it might be helpful to those looking to buy the A205.
Vista: I was nervous about Vista because like everyone else I have heard bad things. Fortunatley I have not have any major problems with Vista. I was annoyed by the infamous "Cancel or Allow" but that can be shut off. I think if you are buying a pc with pre-installed Vista you will not have as many gripes as those upgrading to Vista.
Physical dimensions: I'm very happy with the layout of my laptop. I like the keyboard and I like that at the very front are buttons for internet, beats clicking. The sound, microphone jack and volume wheel are at the front. I personally like this, especially the sound wheel because my last laptop had two buttons for volume which was a pain pressing all the time. The casing actually seems pretty fragile, plastic like. No problem for me because I handle it like a baby but if perhaps not for everyone.
Problems: There was plenty of bloatware by Toshiba but that was easy to delete. My biggest problems was this weird Toshiba program where they have this tabs at the top that was unneccessary and very annoying. I managed to delete this but was stressful. Also stressful was when I downloaded an update to my Wireless software from Windows Update and it stopped working. I would advise to be very careful updating from Windows Update, especially your wireless card. ... Read More
