Could be better... [Posted on 2008-04-12] Great little computer!
However, it does have a few glitches. The keyboard does flex, and this in turn makes the keyboard quality seem inferior. The U305-S2816 gets incredibly hot underneath, and the PC Express card slot is badly placed. It is so close to the DVD drive that it looks broken, and bends when you lift the PC on the right.
It does have some good points, however. The machine is lightning fast, very portable and a beauty to look at.
I would still recommend it above other PCs such as Sony and HP.
Fast. [Posted on 2008-04-12]
This machine is fast. It comes loaded with a bunch of superfluous offers to various software products. Battery life needs extending.
Very nice unit [Posted on 2008-04-14] I like this computer. The small size is good for me. The graphics are sharp and bright.
It have a Big problem with the OS [Posted on 2008-04-14] I bougth a several laptops like this. I like because the laptop look nice and it have a very good configuration, but when I work with it, the laptop has the problem that can't work the DVD unit, when I see the Device Manager appear the message that the problem is the driver. Toshiba support tells that the only way to fix the problem is with recovery cd's.
Is a real problem to have to pass the recovery cds to the laptop because the requerided time. I will not buy another laptop like this model. I don't recomend this buy.
good notebook [Posted on 2008-04-20] This is my 2nd Toshiba notebook. The 1st one was 17", and I find it very satisfactory. However, it's quite too big and take a lot of space in my bag. So I decided to find a smaller notebook and it has to be only Toshiba. I found this cute 13.3" Toshiba with full specification in many internet stores, but Amazon came up with the cheapest price. It didn't take long to get it after ordering. So far, one thing I notice about this product is the areas beside the mouse pad areas on both side (where I put my palms for typing)are getting warmer to hot after using for about 5 mins. Otherwise, this is a good quick notebook.
