Toshiba Laptop opinion

[JohnR]

Bob - the link doesn't work so I can't see the specs. Sometimes long links get truncated. Post the model#

32 bit is OK
Generally not a fan of the cheap Toshiba laptops

If you are near Boston / Cambrdige - the only "deal" i see is at Microcenter: Acer 15.6" Notebook $299.99 - Store pickup only - SlickDeals.net Forums

$299 - its marginal but its cheap.

Thanks for the reply John. Should have tried the link first. This one seems to work in preview.

Satellite L505D-S5983 Refurbished

I am leaning towards the Toshiba only because of the dual Core Athlon, 3GB Mem and larger HD.

Specs:
320GB HDD, 3GB Memory, 10-Key Pad
Need something to surf the Internet and write emails? The Satellite® L505D-S5983 Refurbishedd comes with an AMD Athlon™ II Dual-Core Processor* M300, ATI Radeon™ 4100 Graphics*, and Realtek 802.11(b/g)* for high speed wireless LAN connection. Its 15.6-inch HD TruBrite® LCD display* with 1366x768 resolution provides a sharp, clear image. You'll also enjoy the integrated 10-key pad for easy data entry. The DVD SuperMulti (+/-R double layer) with Labelflash™ drive keeps you organized with high quality labels burnt directly onto Labelflash™ media. Best of all, its DVD-RAM function acts as an optical hard disk drive for unlimited on-the-fly storage and backup!
