  • My L300 with Centrino processor still runs very quick after 3+ years ... very happy with it except now the battery is not charging anymore which is just part of normal replacement.

  • Can it run fraps and minecraft smoothly together? Can it smoothly run photoshop and a 3D modelling program such as c4d or maya? All help is greatly appreciated

  • @HDGekko yes it can

  • @NarutoRocks2011 O.O i was gonna enter a video contest to win it but its probably t olate for me to make a good enough vid to win :(

  • @HDGekko no it cant i have it i get like 20 fraps max on the lowest video settings.

  • I have one, it works perfect for just basic home computing and also I do a bit of web devloping and it runs fine for that, it is quite old, but it is very nice!

  • This is a peace of shit. I've got one ,has no webcam and crashes all the time

    DON'T DO IT

  • @mysticmarespice i probably got a downgraded one but I bought a new laptop anyway

  • He he... I got this... Well the L300D-12I which is the same looking computer, Just this one has an extra GB of ram, It's great for gaming... NOTE: Get vista of this computer, RIGHT NOW! With windows xp and 4 gb of ram and the laptops amazing graphics card, It's amazing. P.S. Recently the touchpad has gone weird, I do leave it running for mass amount of time though... Maybe the heat has killed the inside of the computer?

  • I just got similar one from compsplanet

    they are pretty cheap to buy there

  • (i am niallenglish) This laptop is an ok starter laptop.. it was my first personal pc that i didnt have to share with my family. I am sending you this message from a quad core custom built gaming pc.. my younger brother now uses this laptop and after about 2 years he is getting very frustrated with it

  • I have that laptop, i'm using it now...Its alright, its good..

  • After about 2 years

    15min battery from fully charged

    Left click sinking

    But still runs very quick

  • ahahhah i have 2.10 GHz

  • guys, trust me i have that one. it is a shit laptop..

  • nice laptop

    I have it, installed windows 7 ultimate 32-bit on it.

    it's good!

  • freaking all of these things he mentioned to be as "great" things are the usual in for almost all laptops out there these days...

  • i have this toshiba l300 for 2 years it run good i love toshiba

  • I am writing form this shit right now. Don't buy it.

  • I can't even load anything without it freezing now. It will freeze every minute for about 5 minutes. Sometimes even loading safe mode is hard enough. 2 x 1Gb of RAM and still the computer uses 50% of it when hardly anything is running. Something must have died, probably the RAM

  • I dropped this laptop 2 years ago from the coffee table to hardwood floor, and it seems to be working normal even til this day. I am completely satisfied and no hesitation with purchasing another Toshiba Laptop in the future.

  • Oh, I also can't play anything on windows media player or anything else without it lagging, and my webcam doesn't work properly.

  • Yuk, mine sucks. 30 minutes of battery, overheats in less than 5 minutes, the fan is super loud, the left click button is sinking and it is as slow as hell to turn on.

    -_- I'm gonna get a mac.

  • @ZhangyXD my battery= 5min...

  • After 2 years of use...

    Battery = 30min max

    Left button = sinking in

    Fan plastic section = falling off

    that's pretty much it for mine

  • i have the same one 2 years with the original Vista on it. ONE OF THE BEST AND MOST RELIABLE AND DURABLE TO SHOCKS. I'm a computer engineer and I also own an acer aspire one D250, ASUS X59sl, lenovo S10-2, Dell Studio 1555, Ibm t23 and a desktop pc. This was the most reliable. never had any kind of conflicts ... where all the other had.

  • for some reason everybody elses seems to be falling apart

    or being slow

    or having small battery life

    mines fine

    it must have been made by chuck norris

  • mine has windows 7 ultimate

  • I got this laptop and i spilled a whole glass of milk on it, nothing happened it didnt slow down and i just called toshiba and got it cleaned but i had to se it like that for a good three days so FYA

  • I own this laptop. Worst piece of Chinese crap I ever bought. Battery does not last more than 30 min. The case that holds the screen in place cracked. This thing is just falling apart. I would never purchase a crappy Toshiba ever again.

  • Lol my battery life is 30 mins and it struggles to play flash. Which is why I have to use my iPod just to go on YouTube...

  • I hav this... its shit, but sturdy, and i dont think it'll break, well hopefully i haven't jinxed it

  • I have this laptop with 2.GHz dual core. I think its good for me, its performance is good. But the battery life is horrible. & My charger has broke 3 times.

  • full of shit find a good laptop ask me i know all about laptops now he full of shit

  • full of shit

  • lol u mean super slow ddr2 memmory, 1.9 ghz? SHIT SHIT SHIT

  • do u no where i can get a brand new display back 4 this laptop (the plastic screen cover on the back) ? phone up toshiba?

    cheers

  • @JIPPIX94 same

  • the lcd screen is total crap on this laptop ....

  • I was having problems with this... guy who fixed it tell me that this computer isn' t for games and if I play games it will broke again. can I own 1 game on it and then it will be good?

  • @MysteeryMan If u want any pc to play alot of game, theres a simple trick, watch this video it really helped me and my pc  can run MW2 Full speed and Vindictus Fullspeed on high. .youtube.com/watch?v=b1WWpKEPd­T4

  • I just got one today cheap. put windows 7 ultimate on and it seems to work fine. Needs more RAM and bigger hard drive as well.. The downside is the trackpad is shit.. buttons sink.. it's bad design with that.. good general purpose laptop though..

  • thats a good laptop i bought it and yes it has windows vista its good for home use,watch dvd or burn. i like it

  • My Charger Doesnt Work For It anymore What Do I Do?

  • why? the fucking guy who programmed this (lol it didn't have vista when I bought it) took 70$ and didn't programmed it succesfully (I think that) and now it's so fucking slow shitty bitch. and... games run normal but by own this computer is bad...

  • @MysteeryMan Use ccleaner from ccleaner.com

    its really good click download but then it will show you

    2 links click the bottom one

    for faster stuff

  • @nightpower3 I have ccleaner :) maybe It's time to use it again

  • I installed windows 7 on this laptop and i can't even believe how fast it is.

  • @MetelAdict i have the l300-1aq just upgraded from vista to win 7 mines pretty quick too

  • i have a satellite l505 i really like it i forgot how to get to my camera because i deleted from my desktop though

  • @rrvvss18707 try hovering your mouse slowly around the edges of your laptop screen it should pop out with sub-menues

  • i have this laptop (im on it now)

    it doesnt even freeze! its well fast! :D

  • I have a Toshiba Satellite, not sure which model. but it has this problem...whenever I leave it alone for about 20 minutes it will freeze on me. I have to let a playlist of music play or let a movie play whenever i go do something or it will just freeze up. anyone know the problem? Also I noticed that it takes a very long time to boot up at the sign in screen...not sure if that's normal

  • Stupid laptop toshiba technology is very back wards i got a simlilar version of this laptop l310 its a stupid laptop my graphic card spoiled2 times aready jus in a year the hard disk also spoiled and they replaced it witha lousy hitachi hard disk, toshiba is the worst computer brand ever the slowest lousiest,if i were to rate it i would give it 0 upond 5 , stupid laptop so many problems tunnring up jus after a year , lousy mother board , look at the amount of negative comments here.

  • i have toshiba laptop it's the A105 and i love it it's so fast!!!!! Toshiba is good if you take care of it, i keep the discs if it messes up you can always recover the whole laptop so that's nice

  • will this work with linux?

  • hi can someone please please tell me how to install a sata drive on this laptop. Is it possible to download it from the internet?

    il be very grtaeful for ur help

  • Its ok i mean if you update it itll be about $300 outa your pocket in order to do that

  • be careful guys the ac adpater has a habit of suddently stop working,for no reason,like magic.and replacing it will cost you a lot.(mine didn't even last a year)

  • Yeah It Happened 2 Me Once But Its Not Expensive 2 Replace The Adapter On Ebay($5-$10). This computer is the shyt tho.Screen is huge and clear,Vista is so fast on it,nice pictures,alot of space,everything. Only downfall is that since its more den just yo lil laptop,the battery time goes fast.

  • What a gay

  • Got this, it;s awesome

  • i have this laptop (on it now). if you do get this laptop with vista i recommend you get norton 360 for it. its a nice laptop tho.. nice graphics card, good web cam and the battery life is ok. i would rate this laptop at 8.0 out of 10.

  • i have to say, even with vista these are fast...

  • is for media, gaming what?

  • cud any1 plz send me a message for update link to intel x3100 ? i tried to download from intel site but it didnt work! :S btw i got home premium 32 bit

  • how is the webcam

    ?

  • I like FaceAether face recognition more.

  • yay! agressive marketing!

  • lol "you need it, get it"

  • mine looks like that but has 4 ddr ram and 500 gb ram lol

  • This is what im runnin right now, i recomend it, its fast and tough.

  • is it good for playing games?

    (i only want one game on it)

  • Well what game do you want? it runs the likes of Half-Life 2 nicely on highest settings..

  • Ya, pretty good for games. Certainly not as good as a desktop or gaming PC, but it's pretty good for gaming for the price. I play the Sims 3 on it, no problems. If you're just using it for games, then you must be into lots of games. I use mine for word processing, surfing the net, and playing some games once in a while. You should go for a gaming laptop since you're just using it for games, so try an Alienware, Voodo, basically a gaming laptop. But this is good for some games, and work.

  • I have this one , great for the price !

  • i have the one down from this but i have windows 7

  • I have this laptop when i start it up before the login screen "please wait.." appears for a min or two anyone know how to stop this?

    I have windows vista : )

    Thanks

  • Simple mate, uninstall "Toshiba face recongnision" from programs and it will no longer say please wait.

    ;)

  • im using my toshiba laptop right now. =) first ever personal laptopl. well not really personal, my dad also uses this. um, can i ask which is more better? toshiba brand or apple? just wondering. im new at this. so, i hope i can get some answers.

  • Toshiba... Apple is for Mac users and many people dont like Mac, so you made the right choice for buying this laptop :)

  • I'm going to buy this laptop, and it comes wih a free copy of Windows 7. Should I install it? Or will the computer just be super slow and annoying?!? Please help!!!

  • i was talking to a guy at bestbuy and he said it took him 40 minutes to install windows 7 and he said it is the easiest and fastest system hes ever used so i would do it

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • omg i have one of those!! its amazinggggg!! lol mines bigger though. mines 17 inches. :D i definately reccomend this laptop

  • :( I broke my head phone jack :D

  • damn, im really weary of that, and the power adapter jack, did u get it repaired?

  • no i didnt, and i just recently broke the power jack aswell, i have to tape it there, so im thinking of getting a new laptop, maybe a macbook?

  • Ahh,the same laptop I'm on right now!!!Ahh,he stole my computer!LOL!

  • toshiba is one of best laptop brands in town..ive had toshiba from the start now i own this same model and it works perfectly i just upgraded it with a 4 gb 800 series ram keep it cool with a cooling fan and maintain ur laptop clean and all programs runnings i dnt think you will have any problems....

  • I've buyed last year this model of laptop and already i want a pc... IT JUST SUCKS!!!! DON'T BUY IT!!! ..THE MOST IDIOTIC THING IN THIS LAPTOP IS THE VIDEO CARD!!!!

  • Where do I plug-in my mouse?

  • lol!

    gotta be USB mouse.

    no ps2 ports onboard for an older mouse.

  • MINE DOESN'T HAVE CAM

  • where is logan this guys sucks !

  • gets hot and broke in tree month

  • This guy sounds like he has 3 different accents...

  • I may be wrong here but he sounds South African trying to pull off an American accent

  • If this guy was reviewing a frying pan as if it was a laptop he'd probably go on about how amazing it is too

  • I have the L300 with Centrino Processor and it's been fast and I don't have any complaints about this laptop ... It's got all the basic features that I need, and for the price this is a great bargin.

  • Lol, btw what kinda ram does Toshiba Satelitte use?

    Is it possible to change the grapich card?

    Memory card?

    Im gonna make it GAMING! hehe

    By the way is it possible to play wow on that computer without lagging ? =P

  • Good idea, buy a £300 laptop and spend £1000 on upgrades to make it suitable for gaming

  • LOL what kind of games do you guys play that you need to buy a huge sized video card LOL

  • LOL omfg, i didnt get the laptop with ati radeon 3100 :(

    btw is it possible to change grapich card?

  • yes, but you must buy a graphics card specificly for a laptop.

  • What computer doesnt have integrated wireless connectivity.

  • just reading specs of a sheet is hardly a meaningful review

  • mines going funny with me the screens freezing please can some1 help me out ASAP

  • Are you using a display driver that isn't from Toshiba directly? A friend of me had the same issue that the notebook was freezing with a 3rd party display driver. Then he installed the Toshiba driver and the freezes gone. I can also recommend to clean the notebook from time to time using compressed air spray. That's really useful and you will have a cool notebook after this.

  • today u can get this for a doller

    i got mine for a buck

  • thats my computer.

  • its probbably slow for yall because yall have slow internet mine is fast i use mozilla and i have bellsouth internet

    Well... Mine may be different, I have the same thing, except for the Cam on top.

  • Yeah im on it.. Not that great on a laptop

  • i got this laptop, the L300 and u know it is soooooooooooooo slow it is crazy!!! Cost like 399 and is so slow I am so disappointed with it!!

  • Really mine cost 500$ and it works great

  • I have the L300D-20M and I am very satisfied :=)

  • I'm using that laptop right now!

  • just bought a satellite L500 today and so far it has been great. the last satellite i had lasted for 3 years without a problem.

  • Bought a toshiba satellite on the 6th of january in 2007, a few days after vista came out. my laptop broke down 4 times in the next year, lit in smokes, overheated so hard that it burned a hole through my jeans, and had numerous glitches.

    Worse laptop(s) ever made

    Trust me, you'll regret buying one

  • wow it is amazing because you are correct the HEAT coming from this laptop is unbelievable and has shut down multiple times because of overheating

    not the worst laptop ever but this is pretty bad laptop they had to replace my mobo because of the ethernet died and then what they gave me has a broken modem port if i used the port i would care but still the point remains they fix this with shit old components

  • i have it. im on right now,, my parents got it for me.

  • £299 at any argos

  • Vista... If you don't have it, get it!

    Makes me puke, dude. Did you even worked once with this crap? What a salesppl sh*t review, made for selling NOT informing. Thumbs down.

    I think I got a different one though, it's the same laptop, but different size. Mine was originally $800,

  • i got this and i love it!!!! battery life sucks but ima get a new one.

  • tiger must pay this guy to bullshit hardcore, theres nothing special about it.

  • Well, maybe if it was a dell or HP. if it was , it would be much more expensive. This is pretty special considering it's price.

  • This guy makes a lower end laptop sound great xD
