Toshiba Satellite A135-S4487 Laptop Reviews

Have had occasion to work on several of these. One of which almost burned down a clients home. The other is still on life support. I wouldn't touch a Toshiba Satellite if it was the only Laptop on the planet. Toshiba makes great other products but NOT this laptop. Way to many others to chose from to settle.

I bought this laptop almost three years ago on sale with my tax refund. I lot of bad things have happened to me since then and I have lost or had to sell most all of my belongings.

One of the few items I refuse to give up is my Toshiba Satellite laptop. It does everything I want. I watch T.V. and Movies, burn C.D.'s, talk on skype (super cheap phone service), operate my online business, take online college classes and so much more.

 What do I not like:

Vista, I had it removed and replaced with XP but, I unfortunately got a virus and had to use the recovery disks (another awesome Toshiba inclusions)...

the computer itself is excellet. it has a nice big screen that is very bright and clear. the graphics are amazing and the programs that it has are wonderful once you figure out how to use them. the updated verzions of things are sometimes hard to figure out because you are so use to the old ones. like microsoft powerpoint but the new one is so much better once you figure out how to use it, you can do and add so much more than before with everything right at the click of a button instead of searching for everything. the computerized tour is great for the ones who have a hard time learning how to...

I really wasn't looking for anything fancy and that's exactly what this laptop is. I went to Best Buy and bought the cheapest one they had. I was very pleasantly surprised. The large bright screen is great. With the dvd player I get movies from netflix and am able to watch instantly. Having it pre-loaded with Vista was a bit of an issue. Not alot of the programs I use are compatible yet.

 I was concerned about it overheating but I didn't notice an issue with the heat at all.  I do have to agree with the other reviewer about the volume button in a strange place. It basically sits so low that any movement...

I have had my laptop for about 2 months now.  So far it is really fast and I am getting use to Vista.  It is really easy to use.  The monitor is very bright and easy to read.  It was very affordable.  After all of my rebates I ended up paying $399.

This review is for the toshiba A135 laptop.  This is the third toshiba I have purchased and it is the best one yet.  great graphics, great load times and the battery life is tremendous.  I would highly recommend this unit
