Toshiba Satellite Pro M30

Overall a very good experience owning it and it has an interesting styling.

Can't express how good the sound system is -v.good 4 watching DVD movies.

Internal components are well-combined, so no complaints here.

I like the fact that u can adjust the volume by turning a knob, not by the function +/- keys!

I had the screen hinges replaced under guarantee, coz they are too weak -with time the screen tends to wobble on them.

My particular Toshiba Satellite Pro laptop model is a P4M 1.7Ghz Centrino (there is a 1.5 version around also). Standard build is 512MB RAM, which I upgraded at time of purchase to 1GB. It has a nVidia GeForce FX 64MB video card, which copes extremely well with games. Battery life for the standard battery is well over 2 hours (if you turn the screen brightness down). Synaptics touch pad is good, but I use a standard mouse by choice. Lots of good software provided by Toshiba - this machine is typical of other Toshiba's I have used/owned in the past. An excellent machine. Highly recommended.
