The new way to UNWIRE

Date of Review:  Jun 20, 2003
The Bottom Line: The best Centrino laptop for your money. Best battery life and more.
Review: First off this is a great notebook with plenty of bang for the buck. Lets go down the list for the reason why I believe this is the ultimate Centrino laptop.

After reading several of the new reviews I would still highly recommend paying...

Great laptop but a few minuses

Date of Review:  Jul 3, 2004
The Bottom Line: Great laptop for students and home users. Includes USB2 and 1394 ports. Conviently places ports except the USB ports which are located at the rear.
Review: This is an awsome laptop as to be expected for the price paid. I bought it for its 40GB HD, swappable media drive, USB2 & firewire port. Dual point devices are always a plus. 802.11 connectivity, didn't want it at the time but absolutly love it. I...

Was sold a LEMON, motherboard broke twice, horrible customer service

Date of Review:  Oct 8, 2004
The Bottom Line: Do not buy, or research heavily before buying. Was sold LEMON, customer service tells me to eat it, doesn't respond to letter. Big, diminished battery, useless wireless device.
Review: The LOWDOWN: Was sold a LEMON by Toshiba. Motherboard/hard drive crashed after 6 months, was "fixed" by Toshiba, then broke down again w/ the same problem after 2 months. Countless phone conversations and letters to Customer Service and got the...

Truly A Best Buy

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2006
The Bottom Line: I recommend this computer because I have had it now for about 6 months and never had a problem with it, even though Toshiba's website is less than par!
Review: Being a computer technician, I am not the most easy person to please. I always build my own computers, and am a constant tweaker! When it came to college however, I had to put that aside, I needed a notebook computer! I did a lot of research and I...

Toshiba M15

Date of Review:  Jul 22, 2003
The Bottom Line: Great Bang-for-the-Buck. Lot's of Great Features. Only complaint is low screen res which is probably fine for most. For $1600-range look here.
Review: I bought this laptop on 7/15/3 from Circuit City. It was the only Satellite Pro there and far out shined all their other models. I am extremely happy I got a Centrino laptop because you can literally watch more than 2 full length DVDs on a single...

Great Laptop

Date of Review:  May 20, 2004
Review: Overall, very impressed with the Toshiba satellite Pro series. I also concur that the hibernation has issues which leads to blackout in screen occasionally. The overall speed and performance are great. For example, I am a heavy user of 3D simulators...

Poor design flaws and low QA

Date of Review:  Aug 25, 2003
The Bottom Line: Received several laptops, 35% of them had manufacturers defect. Design flaw where TFT screen case weak from outside shell and will allow TFT damage.
Review: Received a few of these laptops also labeled as M10-S405s family. Several of the laptops had manufacturer defects that will not be repaired or in limbo status even though units came straight out of the box sealed and were no sooner sent back by us...

Uneven Performance

Date of Review:  Aug 16, 2003
The Bottom Line: If you are going to use this just for yourself and not work heavily with graphics or show pictures at a gathering, it is a fine computer for the money.
Review: Documentation is meager, at best. The keyboard feel and layout are excellent, as is the overall functionality of the machine. The battery goes forever, it seems. I am getting an average of 5+ hours per charge. The screen is very disappointing; it is...

the best laptop in $1500 range

Date of Review:  Aug 25, 2003
The Bottom Line: Get this laptop for any use except gaming, but particularly for student computing! Wireless compatability with almost any network with excellent extra features.
Review: i bought this toshiba a week ago, after spending quite a while reading reviews and looking at specs for every laptop out there (excluding compac and hp which i despise). i was looking for centrino, DVD/CD-RW, 40GB hard drive, and 512 DDR. it was...

Incredible Machine

Date of Review:  Jul 19, 2003
The Bottom Line: This is a quality machine, with long battery life, and wireless connectivity (CENTRINO)all with a great price tag.
Review: I've had my Satellite Pro m15 for about a month now. It is one of the best investments that I've ever made. The battery life is unheard of. I run my machine on full so I wear down the battery in about 4.5 hours. However, if I were willing to cut the...
