You get more of everything: a huge Toshiba HD+ display, Dolby Advanced Audio, ultra-stylish design and many Toshiba EasyMedia features for easy use.
My company owns this laptop, but it has been assigned to me for 5 months now. I work with graphics alot of the time so for me, it is essential to have top quality picture and colour. I use it everyday for about 4 hours a day, and i have never had any problems with it so this will be a positive review!

The first time i started using it the whole thing was very complicated and hard to get used to, since i didn't have much experience with laptops before, although the manual that came with this was given to me, and it wa extremely helpful, and at the back there are contact numbers for customer support, and web links. It took 10 minutes to set up and start work.

The keys are chunky and dont push down very much which annoys me because i have to keep checking the screen to make sure i really did just press the right key, and it does make you typo a lot. As i say though, graphics is the main reason it was given to me, as i specifically asked for an HD one with good colour range, and it has 16.4 million colours and 1080p HD screen which is incredibly detailed when watching hd movies or dealing with vector graphics.

If you defrag it regularly and keep it virus clean it will run pretty smoothly. I did a test for this review, and it loads to password logon screen in 8 seconds!!

It comes with windows 7 which isn't the nicest peice of software to use since i prefer linux, but it has made life easier, and since the laptop is designed for W7 in the first place, you rarely get errors, faults and crashes, so just dont change the software, and its a great laptop!
