My husband, who is very computer knowledgeable, and I really like this laptop for several reasons. The touch pad is not so sensitive that it moves my cursor while I type, The speed is reasonable and several other reasons. The only reason I did not give this laptop a 5 star is rating is that the power jack has a very loose fit and does not stay connected to the laptop so I am continuously pushing it in.
This is the lowest price 17.3" laptop. Very very affordable, and well build, have almost everything I need.
I also bought a 60GB SSD for $50, and installed in this laptop. And this laptop runs like a rocket.However after playing with the computer for 2 weeks i later discovered that the computer kept giving me a warning notification saying: THIS COMPUTER DOES NOT HAVE A GENUINE COPY OF WINDOWS 7 INSTALLED" and another notification advised me that "YOU MAY BE A VICTIM OF SOFTWARE FRAUD".I received a brand new DEFECTIVE laptop. I bought this laptop (not through Amazon) for my very un-techy aunt, so when I received it I unpacked it to create an account for her and get some software installed/removed before turning it over to her. At the screen where you create an account name is where I realized what a POS this computer was. The keyboard was completely defective...most of the keys (at least 90% of the keys) did nothing. There were keys that did respond though...the backspace key inserted a "k", the "t" key inserted a "j", the "d" key inserted a semi-colon. None of the arrow keys worked. None of the number pad keys worked. The enter key did not work. I could not do anything with this laptop.
How this laptop got through quality control reflects on the the Toshiba brand, and based on this I will never buy a Toshiba anything again and will give that word of caution to all my friends and family.
