**Marinausa** · 12-26-2010, 02:01 AM

I got a Christmas present in the form of a C655D-s5080 Toshiba laptop this morning.

Now, I know that this is an entry-level laptop. But, even with it's mid-tier subscore, this thing is leagues better than the original Dell Pentium IV I'm typing on right now (aka my ten-year-old antique).

But, does anyone have an experience with the C650 series of Toshibas? I'm wondering if I should trade up or anything. I'm mainly worried about warranty or technical issues, but from past research I've come to accept that every company out there puts out lemons or has horrible issues with some PCs at one time or another. Just trying to get some feedback. Since my PC I've had for the past ten years is the ONLY computer I've ever owned, I am poorly versed in computers. But, here are the specs:

2gb DDR3 mem
250gb HDD @ 5400
AMD V Series V140
GWindows 7 Home Premium (64bit)
~16" screen

any help, advice, feedback, or opinions are appreciated.
