Review of the TOSHIBA Satellite A305-S6837

Very nice laptop with beautiful Fusion Finish. Definite buy 5/5

Here is a link for a model today that is extremely similar to the one I'm reviewing, with a few updates: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9389413&type=product&id...

TOSHIBA A305-S6837 (the one I'm reviewing) System Specs:

-320 GB Hard drive (5400rpm)
-4 GB DDR2 RAM (PC5300)
-Intel X3100 integrated Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) with 158mn-358mb of dynamically allocated VGA RAM
-Wireless a/b/g/n (built in); also has Intel® Wireless Wi-Fi Link

NOTE: I failed to mention anything on the front of this notebook. There is a headphone and microphone jack as a well as a 5-in-1 SD (and other media) card reader. Also on the front, you'll find a wireless on/off switch. See the detailed location review for more in depth information.

UPDATE: The port one the left side: it's not a PS/2 Port is an SVID Output for older projectors...sorry

1213982 do you recommend this over a hp,sony,mac ?

[1213982]

@fuzzy15946 over HP yes, over Sony - probably about equal. A Mac is going to be a higher quality build but pricier

Anyone know how to remove the bezel on a Toshiba Satellite A305? I am having trouble removing the bottom portion of the bezel.
