Talk:Toshiba Satellite

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The A70, A75, M30X, and M35X series of the satellite notebooks seemed to be steeped in problems. There's the beginnings of a class-action suite evolving. http://www.lorisklar.com/toshad.htm Check out all of the complaints on CNET. http://reviews.cnet.com/5208-7587-0.html?forumID=69&threadID=52744&messageID=1114404 Many of the folks who complained have had virtually no feedback and in some cases have been downright lied to. This speaks of very poor customer service on Toshibas part. My roommate has a A75 and it has had problems since day one.

[edit] A 100 difference in Canada and United States

The Toshiba A 100 series is configure diffenerly in U.S. and Canada, while the Canadian version can have GeForce Go 7600, the U.S. can only have Geforce 7300. They won't even have the option of picking the 7600. U.S. site http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/cdetland.to?poid=321560&coid=-30599&fgpn=PSAA8U-0KJ00V&seg=HHO Canadian site http://www.toshiba.ca/web/product.grp?lg=en&section=1&group=1&product=5611&part=5099#spectop

I turely question their intergratiy that they only offer 7600 to the Candians!!!

[edit] Toshiba Satellite 1905-S277

This computer has a terrible overheating problem.

I had a thinner version Satellite that would overheat and shut off. This version was it's replacement but it continues to have the overheating problem, though not as bad.

Batteries on this laptop run hot and don't last more than 6 months. The heat also makes my CD/DVD drive skip and shut down.
