I have had my Toshiba laptop for about 3 years. I bought it at Best Buy with my tax money, I was in college and felt I needed a laptop for school to make taking classes easier on me. My desktop computer was not doing what I needed it to do for my classes. I am on a live of absent but still use my laptop daily. It is easier for me to type because I am used to typing on my laptop more then any other computer, I type more words a minute on it to..
My computer has not crashed once, since I have gotten it. I have gotten a couple of bad viruses which I was able to clean it out of the computer with our having to lose any information. When I got my Toshiba it was on sale and was the best deal in the store so I got it. It has started slowing down in recent months and now I have a cooler for the laptop. I think it is starting to show it age but I know I can get a lot more use out of the computer. I have only had the current cooler for few months and it already not working right, I will need to get another one soon.
With my laptop I have been very careful, I make sure I get it’s updates, and run a virus scan on all emails coming in, and don’t download many files unless I know it is safe. I learned my lesson when downloading TV shows that it’s just to easy to crash a computer. I have had no troubles with my Laptop, the CDR still reads and rights, well it better considering the computer only 3 years old almost. I still have plenty of room in my computer. Now it did not like the Idea of downloading my MP3 player, so that went to the desktop. I am thinking it just has something to do with the software more then the computer, because it had no problem downloading my Webcam stuff, and I have been able to do some videos. I should take a few of Otis. Otis is my cat.
When the time comes to get a new laptop I will get another Toshiba, this is my second Toshiba, my first one I gave to my friend, who still has it and that laptop is about 10 years old now. Wow that thing has ran a long time! Toshiba so far has shown me they build good quality stuff and I hope they continue to do so. One thing I would change with my Laptop is what all it came with, I wish they would have preload Office student so I didn’t have to spend money on that, but I am still very happy with my computer. Everything still work good.
