I received my laptop as advertised with Windows Vista Premium. It has a wonderful display, and the small amount of junk software was easily removed. The battery life is very very good for the size and power of this device. Toshiba's load management software seems to assist in keeping the machine's power needs in check with your needs. Audio fidelity is excellent. Weight is very acceptable considering it's size and it doesn't get very hot sitting directly on your lap!
All-in-all, I really like the laptop but am left with a couple of observations.
1. The finish is entirely too glossy. It's sexy, but with the normal oils on your hands causes this beauty to look dingy, dull and frankly un-sanitary. If you keep a micro-fiber cloth handy you can buff you machine and keep it looking nice.
2. The keyboard is flat (and I do mean FLAT) keys are hard to get use to if you are comfortable with the typical keys that are concaved for easy seating of your finger tip(s).
I do have one technical concern, and that is.. the power jack for the power supply is too long to be fully inserted into the side of the laptop. Meaning some of the shiny chrome on the barrel of the connector is actually visible. That translates into the female power connector becoming stressed (inside the laptop) from being pulled on during normal use. Toshiba be prepared for warranty returns! Mine already wiggles just a bit. A connector that can fit so tight against the laptop that it feels as if snaps into place would cause far less stress on the machine and power supply cord (Toshiba look at HP's design...hint hint). There is a FIX. Purchase a small rubber grommet and put it over the barrel of the male connector on the power supply cord pushed back to the black plastic. This will provide the much needed relieve from the connector being wiggled back and forth as it fills the void between the connector and the wall of the laptop.
Outside of that... a very nice and extremely fast machine! Get more detail about Toshiba Satellite A505-S6973 16.0-Inch Laptop - Black/Grey.
