What Customers Say About Toshiba Satellite X205-SLI5 17-inch Laptop (2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo T8300 Processor, 3 GB RAM, 320 GB Hard Drive, DVD Drive, Vista Premium):

It has handled top end games with no problems. I use it as a desktop replacement, so it is usually plugged in. This is the second Toshiba laptop that I have purchased, the first was bought new in November of 2005, and it is still in use; although the battery charge only lasts about an hour. I purchased the X205 SLI5 from an eBay wholesaler for $925 a few months ago and haven't had any issues at all.
I originaly thought this would be a problem, and have found that it was not. The only downside is the lack of battery life. My next step is to take the memory from 3gb 677mhz to 4gb 800 mhz, since the motherboard is 800mhz.
It can handle all of the heavy stuff and a great gamer too. I love the fact that it has two hard drives for easy back ups, and that you can easily upgrade. I have had mine for about a year and have used it just like a desktop.
I just replaced the 150 gb primary drive with a 320 gb and it works fine. I have always been able to find an outlet.A great all around performer, with many of the same connections and options you will find in a desktop. The first thing I noticed about X205-SLI5 is that it is made like a tank, just the way I like it.
So far this thing has been the best laptop that I have used.
I don't know if the problems are battery related, since it'll cost $500 to have Toshiba diagnose the problem. I've bought two Satellite laptops, and both have had their batteries fail within two years. It's great value for the first year, so enjoy. That's right, FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS once it's out of warranty.The screen on the newer laptop - just two years old - has gone funky, with some horizontal lines.They both run somewhat warm, with the fan going nonstop.As you can tell, these are my last Toshiba laptop purchases. One of them won't keep a charge for more than a few minutes, and sometimes powers off when you disconnect the AC power; the other sometimes just shuts down at the slightest movement. When we called the tech support, they didn't mention that the batteries were subject to recall; now I just found out, and Toshiba won't process the recall.
I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 mainly due to battery life. This laptop is good for its price level This thing has worked well for me since I bought it 3-4 months ago, although not from amazon.(I got it for $1250 after looking a bit)Pros:Its got plenty of memory.Processor speed is good, while 2ghz is not the best out there, having 2 of them makes up for this.Great videocard, the video card in this thing is petty good.Plenty of ram; it can support up to 4gb of ram but only has 3 istalled which should be plenty for most people.Good screen sizeCons:It says 320gb total for two hard drives, however mine say they are only about 150(oddly enough) each instead of the promised 160, this is only a minor annoyance to me really.Heavy, another minor annoyance, I dont carry this everywhere so it doesnt bother me too much; this is really a desktop replacement though.Keyboard took some getting used to.Now, the only major thing here is lack of battery life, at mabe an hour to a couple hours depending on what your doing this thing will not be far from the wall for long, but like I said this is really supposed to be a desktop replacement.Overall, if you need a laptop to replace a desktop then this would definitly be for you, I find its a good computer and can run anything I use, the games Dawn of War and Rome Total War will run very well on it with graphics most of the way up.
Fast shipping.few problem with the CD directory (common with Toshiba laptops) but overall I am pleased.
