Toshiba Laptop Model F45-AV411 offered by Amazon. [Posted on 2008-02-13] As too the supplier, i.e., Amazon, I couldn't ask for better service. The shipping was free, and the price couldn't be matched. The only complaint I've got is that Toshiba Support does not offer most any support for the pre-installed Vista Ultimate operating system -- they simply direct me to Microsoft Support. Since this OS is an OEM version and not the Retail version, there is a $35 charge for support. This obviously sucks. Shame on you Toshiba for not training your Support team. This is my first laptop. I've built my own desktops for years, so this is my first experience with OEM operating systems. Next laptop bought will be one from a manufacturer whose technical support people are trained on the OEM Opersting System.
Slick... [Posted on 2008-03-25] Good value for product, especially with Vista Ultimate. Slick but bulky and heavier than most laptops; not to lug around. The sound is good for this little box. It has all the goodies you generally want on a desktop.
