Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent product, puzzled by reviews
I researched this model A215-4697 during summer of 2007 before buying it for my daughter to take to college. It's been running great.

I am puzzled by the fact that at least some of the one star reviews are from other models purchased at Best Buy.

This model (A215-S4697)wasn't available there. They had other Toshiba laptops, but not this one. I got hers at Circuit City.

Other models have other configurations and components, so the reviews may very well not ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - DON'T BUY THIS LAPTOP
This is one of the poorest performing laptops that I have experienced. It is sloooooooow beyond words. It freezes often and needs to be rebooted. I was thrilled with the price but after using this for just a few moths, I am going to kick this one to the curb and buy something else. I don't know if Toshiba is the problem or Windows Vista but this is NOT a laptop that you want.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - EXCELLENT PRICE AND PERFORMANCE
I have had the A215-4697 for almost a year now, i purchased it Nov 07' during a sale at circuit city. The price was unbelievable..Paid 550. I have never had a problem with a blank screen, or with Vista. The only upgrade I performed was to add memory (my machine came with 1GB, the minimum to run Vista). However, a friend of mine has an older model, A135----, and she has had problems with the power cord and shutting down, and missing hibernate, and a over-hot touch pad. I had her download the bios ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Excellent for simple tasks...horrific for anything else
I've had this laptop for over a year in college (it survived my dorm room, so kudos for that), and the fact that I had bought it for about 650 dollars is a pretty good deal. But like the title suggests, this laptop is really only suitable for simple tasks, such as typing essays and doing basic research on the internet. The screen is bright and there are no bubbles or discrepancies of any kind, and the fact that the LCD panel is on one giant hinge basically ensures you won't get a flimsy hinge (common ...

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - blue screen of death!!!!!!!
I bought the laptop a year ago. After two weeks the computer would crash at random times. I thought adding more Ram would help so I upgraded to 2 gigs.....still happened. I called tech support and they told me to reinstall vista. I did this and the problems still occured. I then sent the laptop back to Toshiba for service....problem not fixed. The warranty has now expired and this piece of junk is worse now than ever. The computer has crashed 28 times this month (Aug 08) I would give this laptop ... Read More
