Simple Laptop.......2007-01-01

This laptop is great for me. I have had it for over a year now and it works very well............. most of the time. It was a good value for the price. I am a graduate student and this is what I could afford but it has served me fairly well. I intend to keep it for another 2 years until I graduate.

actually, my unit is the L25-S1216 variant of this excellent model.......2006-06-05

After 4 months of use, here are some things I consider notable:
+ Clean exterior lines, glossy-black exterior with sharp-cut edges contrasting with simple, polished silver interior
+ No annoying, high pitched capacitor whine
+ hibernation/sleep/wake is flawless
+ sweat from your palm does not permanently stain the enamel finished palmrest
+ fan noise really low after April 2006 BIOS release update
+ included Microsoft OneNote 2003 is quite useful with great UI
+ LCD: LG Philips LPG6500 15" XGA TFT
+ HDD: Toshiba MK4026GAX 40GB 5400RPM with 16MB cache
+ Takes power efficient DDR2 4200 Memory (compared to DDR) (Hynix DDR2-533 1.8V 256MB preinstalled)
+ Optical Drive: TSST TS-L462C
- Noisy optical drive (unless you set the quiet drive utility manually, which always defaults into "noisy mode")
- Celeron Processor does not throttle down even when doing nothing
- Left palm area warm
- BATTERY LIFE (~1hr, 4 cell 29 Watt hour basic pack)
- no card reader or IEEE 1394

All in all, Toshiba really packs some high quality components into this nicely designed/built "budget" notebook. Also check out the Tecra L2-S011, based on the same chasis.

Great for $400! add more RAM & battery and it's even better!.......2005-12-23

I agree with the previous reviewers that this laptop a great entry level. The screen is GREAT, integrated wireless works well, and a 60GB hard drive are nice. The two major weaknesses of this product are the tiny amount of RAM (if you try running more than one application at once the thing is unuseable) and the short battery life.
I also agree with previous reviewers that if you add another stick of RAM to this, it rips along quite well.
I purchased this as an entry level machine and use it for web-access, MS Office, watching DVDs on the go, uploading and sorting through digital photos while away from home.
The Celeron processor really struggles if I try any heavy photo editing but I generally try save that stuff for my desktop machine.
