Toshiba Satellite L505-S5993 TruBrite 15.6-Inch Grey/Black Laptop (Windows 7 Home Premium)
toshiba satelitte laptop

I had looked for a while for a laptop after my desktop died and the Toshiba L505 series was one of my finalists. It has not disappointed me and at the price ($499) for the specs (4g ram/500g HD)it has been the a great machine.

One plus with this machine is that it came with very little “bloatware”- Norton trial, Microsoft Office 2007 trial, and some games. So, if you buy this machine at a “Box Store” don’t let them con you into optimization for an extra $50-$100, you can do recovery disks and bloatware removal on your own.

The only downside is I really wish it had an HDMI output for streaming movies to my flat screen from places like Amazon, but the VGA or USB output will have to suffice.

No HDMI is only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars, other machines in this range offer it and hope Toshiba will soon.
