  • i think this laptop isnt great due to where the speakers are placed as i am surfing the web and i listen to music the sound is muffled as you type and the volume is not that high not to my standards and if you download anything the general boot up tends to double in time not good memory. why make a laptop that is worse than previous models surely thats retarded its like making a peugeot 206 then making the 106 im sure people will pay top dollar for a fast floorless laptop that will be useable for every day use i am sorely dissapointed in the model and toshiba should get off there arses and get in the race for better laptops i am tempted to turn to a macbook i dont think the designers are really going all out on there laptops tut tut tut i hope toshiba read this because i have enjoyed toshiba products but now it seems to be deterirarating good luck and plz make better laptops.

  • Tesco (UK) are selling the Toshiba l300 for £308. This is a far better machine, with 2meg ram and Works Posted by Chris, UK
  • A friend spilt wine ove my L40 and fried it beyond economical repair, so I bought the L300 fom Montrose at £308. It also has a webcam, but the drivers have to be downloaded. A superb machine. Posted by Chris, UK
