Summary: From a Computer Pro in NYC
Review: This laptop sucks. Can you believe they are using a software modem that can not connect even at 14.4 kbps. The machine heats up like a fireball. Battery life is non existant. It is over-sized, won't fit in a bag. This computer combines the worst of desktop and laptop computers. As far Toshiba customer support is concerned, it is non-existant. Shame on you Toshiba for selling this piece of junk at $3,000 ( the original price ). I know that I will NEVER EVER buy anything Toshiba again.

Summary: terrible tech support
Review: Toshiba may make good products, but their support is the worst i have ever come across. They have lost my laptop for over a month now and do not care a lick about it. They're tech support team is in Turkey and they dont care a thing about anybody. They kept hanging up on me and refused to help me saying it will take some time. When i called back- no one knew anything and had zero updates. DO NOT BUY TOSHIBA PRODUCTS! Get a Gateway or Dell instead...two companies that actually care about their customers.
