| rheaton's Full Review: Toshiba Satellite 5105-S501 (PS511U-02TJCX) PC Not... |
Toshiba has an issue they are fully aware of with this model. It is a video card defect that randomly pops up. It can pop up in a month, or not for years. No matter which, Toshiba's response is the same.
Too Bad.
No one will touch this notebook for repair, not even Toshiba. When it dies you throw it away.
It is because of this reason in part that the BBB has given Toshiba an F rating, its lowest possible score, for customer service and satisfaction.
There are hundreds of unanswered complaints about this model still pending.
Buy any other notebook but this one and you'll be much happier.
