Great Laptop at a great price!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
We bought this laptop as an emergency replacement for my daughter at law school. As soon as her laptop was back from the repari chop, I took possession of this one. To be Honest, I find it ver fast, very capable and a great price point for a laptop.
Unless you need to run Photoshop, Word, and the latest and greatest video games ALL AT THE SAME TIME, while downloading mp3 files, you can’t go wrong!
My first laptop ever, I really like it.

I’ve had this laptop for about 8 months now and it’s still going strong. This sucker is fast! My last two computers were both hewlett packard desktops and they both crashed frequently and weren’t as fast as this little sucker is.
People complain about Vista but I like it. (I recommend using Chrome for your web browser)
One thing: For the first four months of using this, the sound was horrible. The speakers were distorting all the time and when I would use the headphones I’d hear this really low end swooshing sound. I finally did some research online and found an audio driver on Toshiba’s web site that fixed the problem. I can’t remember what it was called but you should be able to find it.
One thing I’m not nuts about is the big Toshiba logo on the cover. I’d like to see that changed. It’s also upside down so when the top is open, other people can read the Toshiba right side up.
Overall, a great computer.
Great cost / benefit

I had been looking for a laptop for about 2 months until I found this one. I’ve been using for about three weeks and I’m happy with the performance and features, probably the best configuration I could find in the $600 range (it was on sale at Amazon). Doesn’t come with a case, so that I had to buy one.
Exceptional Value

This laptop is fast, the keyboard is easy to use. For the money, I don’t think it can be beat!

Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This is the second Toshiba Satellite I have purchased. The first one I got in 1989 and it still works (thus, I trust their products). This one did everything I needed it to do and it is really light! It is a great laptop at a great price: Webcam, Dual Core Pentium, 4GB RAM,…etc. However, I wish it had S-video or HDMI or something to easily connect it to my flat screen TV…
Great laptop for a great price!

I was looking for a laptop to supplement my aging desktop. I download a lot of music and wanted a decent size hard drive. Larger hard drives tended to increase the price and I was pleased to find the Toshiba L305 because of it’s larger hard drive (320 GB)at a hard to beat price. The 4 GB RAM, and the Dual Core processor make the Toshiba fast and efficient. The 15.4 screen is bright and clear. It is a fairly large and heavy for a laptop, but I mostly use it at home, so it is perfect for me. I was also pleased with the service from Amazon. It came quickly and was easy to set up out of the box. For the price and features, I don’t think this laptop can be beat.

Toshiba Satellite L305-S5907 is a product that has a lot of good parts in it, however, the unit was sent to me ,…stops out of the ‘blue’ from time to time ,…and that is not normal for a solid PC.

For the specs offered in this laptop @ the given price, it’s defiantly a steal of a deal. Bought it a while now and I have had no complaints.
It’s Fast, has lots of storage space and ram, also its not to heavy to carry around.
If i could do it all over again, I would. Buy it!
Looks Fine to Me.

I’ve owned this laptop for about two months, and i don’t have many complaints. One person complained that the laptop gets hot, and it does, but not to the point that it can’t go on your lap, and All laptops get hot at times. The person also mentioned that the keyboard was cheap, and after a while you had to press the keys with all your might for them to display on the screen. That doesn’t happen to me at all, i’m using it right now. The only problems i have are with the track-pad. When you are using it, sometimes when you move to click something, it freezes on spot, and doesn’t move for about a minute or two, which is a little weird, and annoying at times.
The battery says that it lasts for 3 1/2 hours when its fully charged, but it doesn’t seem to last that long. But who knows? I might just be loosing track of time. I do wish that the battery could have lasted longer. Maybe that is unheard of in Laptops, but i wish the battery had more endurance.
The Laptop comes with a build in microphone and webcam. The microphone is very clear, better than what you would get usually at the computer store ( without spending $60 ). The webcam is a little laggy, but that is to be expected with a webcam smaller than a fingernail. Although they aren’t the latest and greatest installments, they are a nice touch, considering most laptops don’t even provide them.
I’ll touch on the memory. It has 4GB Ram, and a 320GB hard-drive. Something to mention is that it only really comes with 296GB’s, which is 24GB’s less than 320. You are still left with a lot of memory nonetheless. The compter isn’t going to run slow, This would seriously last you a really long time. It should also be Good enough for a large game like Microsoft’s Flight Simulator X.
The computer comes with Windows Vista Premium. For some reason a lot of people don’t like it. Coming fro XP home edition, i love it, and think it’s much better, and looks visually more appealing. I have no problems with Vista, i think it’s a great system. The menus are bigger, brighter, and easier to go through.
The body of the Laptop is plastic ( the front anyway ) and is is very easy to scratch, and get dust on. There is already a scratch on mine, but i guess that vulnerability is to be expected with most laptops. If you buy a case that can open, and leave it in there, there shouldn’t be a problem with that. The laptop was only $699 when i bought it, it was from amazon.com, the seller. I don’t know why the price has gone up so high from this other dealer. Seriously, it is not worth the $850 that it is costing through Techno intelligence. This is a Very good laptop, with one or two personal complaints. I recommend it. It is a very good laptop.
Great laptop a great price

I bought this laptop for Christmas and I have to say it exceeded my expectations. The wireless n card works great, and even though I’m no Windows Vista fan, it loads very fast and didn’t come preloaded with 100s of annoying free trials. The webcam and microphone work great and the extra effects you can add to the webcam are creative and funny. My sister got a kick out of it. It’s a little heavier than usual and it does get a bit warm but nothing that will burn your legs off. I recommend this purchase. Great for the price.
Best in laptop computers

Toshiba is the best in laptop computers, my first laptop is a Toshiba, and with 5 years of use it is still running like new, I just replaced it with this one to be updated and I have no complains about it, it is even better than the first one. And what about the price, it is a bargain!!!
