[Ol Skooler]

Hello,

Does anyone know of any Toshiba online coupon codes? In particular for the notebooks mentioned above, the new 13.3" ultrabooks.

Any thoughts on these laptops?

Thanks.

Thanks!!!!

when using the keyboard i have a habit of holding the bottom right of the laptop, and the square edge digs into my palm(i had a netbook before, and the palm rest was pretty small), i learned to use the trackpad to scroll up and down, no more digging into the palm anymore. I am happy with the screen quality
below are the pros and cons

CONS
glossy screen
2 usb2, 1 usb 3
gets hot
sharp edges on front

PROS
memory 6gb
hdd 100 gb
bluetooth
thin,light,fast,bright screen,long battery life

Thanks for your input.....with it getting hot, does the fan remain on? Is it loud?

no the fan is very quiet, i only noticed because it was blowing the air out, also id does not get hot all the time
all in all i am very satisfied with it so far
