Toshiba Satellite 1955-S801 (PS195U-0007PX) PC Notebook

Pros: Huge Display, Wireless Keyboard and Mouse, Desktop Power
Cons: Considerably larger and heavier than most laptops

Ok, here's the deal... I've always liked the concept of the laptop computer. I used my home computer a lot, so the idea of being able to use it anywhere intrigued me. Unfortunately, laptop computers have a habit of being too expensive, or too weak, or...

Pros: Acceptable if functioning properly. Continually sent off for repairs.
Cons: Toshiba fails to help,customer complaints are handled in Istanbul Turkey.

We purchased the Satellite 1955 S801 in October 2002. We had problems with it immediately. Fortunately, it was not our only one -- we still had our desktop. It is by far the most unreliable notepad ever made, in our (mine and my husband's) opinion. It ...

Pros: Lots of power and speed
Cons: Quality

I don't want to mislead you but I bought my 1955-s801 and it was shipped with the wireless mouse that never worked from day one. Also it had a crack in the plastic outer console beside the keyboard that got bigger. Now, it is on my shelf, I am unable to...

Pros: This is a great notebook computer. Love the large display (16").
Cons: Only one problem with it is finding a case to hold it in.

This is by far a great computer for the money. It's more than most, but with a 16" screen and the remote keyboard and mouse. This is the best laptop I have had. I recommend this one to anyone. Two things to mention is it is heavier than most laptops...

Pros: Great looks, large screen, Good speed and capacity, wireless keyboard and mouse
Cons: Toshiba and Best Buy technical support and service. CPU cooling system failed

There is a class...

Pros: Contains everything a college student needs to adjust except DVD-RW.
Cons: Heavy, bulky and cannot fit in many laptop bags.

Well, from personal use, this laptop is very efficient. It's large hard-drive enable me to use multiple, large programs like Borland jBuilder and Kazaa Media Desktop. It's hard-drive and RAM is larger than regular PC's like Dell and Gateway. Also, if one...

Pros: Large screen, fast CPU, wireless removable keyboard, lots of ports, large hard drive
Cons: Weight.

This laptop is extraordinary and I am now using it as my primary computer while my expensive HP Desktop sits idle. I love it, it performs at lightning speeds, has outstanding sound and video quality and runs all applications effortlessly. It has everything I need and then some including a huge 16" screen which comes in handy for playing DVDs. The only downside at all is the weight, but after carrying 16 lb bowling balls all my life, that doesn't bother me in the least.
