Toshiba does not honortheir warranty
I bought this laptop for my husband less than a
Average Rating -- Pro's and Con's
This laptop is less than a year old, and it has already needed the hard drive replaced.Even though it's still under the 1 year Toshiba warranty, I opted to have it replaced by my trusted computer repairman.I upgraded to a 100GB hard drive from the 80GB that it came with.Since then, there has been NO problems and it's quite a fast machine.One other bad thing, is the battery life.Included is a 4 cell battery that comes with it.Make sure there is less than an hour with of work if you are using it without an AC adapter.I have searched and there are replacement batteries with 6, 8 and 12 cells.So I'm sure a new battery would correct the problem.Other than the hard drive and the low battery, this has been a wonderful laptop.It's easy to use, has a great 15.4" display with wonderful color.If you can find it on sale at 'Better-Buy' or 'Circuit Central' I'd take advantage of the weekly sales flyers.But for the money it is an average price for a fewmore than average options on and slightly better than average laptop.Just make sure you know a little about processors, RAM and GB to do an accurate comparison.Good luck.

Generally good, horrible battery
I bought this laptop last year at Best Buy for school. I was excited to see it was only 800 dollars so I thought it was great. I've had it for a year and it hasn't done anything majorly bad. However, my battery lasts only for an hour, and it takes a while to completely load when I turn it on (this could be my own fault though.) I wish the battery lasted longer because I bought it for school. If you know you will be able to plug it in then it's great. For things like school, I would invest in a centrino computer opposed to a celeron. They last longer.

Actually Five Stars
On some computers, there is a keyboard shortcut to turn the wireless off and on. It may be Fn-F2 or Shift-F2. If you get an error message about the unit being turned off, try this.
Great card, great drivers
I bought this card to replace a 2200BG in an Acer TCM300, and had no problems.
Works well.No problems with installation.
I installed it in a Dell Latitude: C400, Pentium III, Windows XP.A CD was supplied with the card; however, I used the latest software from Intel's website. ... Read more

HP Sucks
HP has the WORST customer service of any company of any kind that I have ever dealt with. I have never called without having spent at least one hour on the phone with them before the various extensions in India, none of whom are helpful. And once the service is complete the computer is usually returned with more problems than they were origionally sent with. I would never buy another HP again.

Get a free Sony VAIO FJ instead!
Why settle for less, when you can get a brand new original colorful ultra-cool Sony VAIO FJ series laptop with 1GB RAM, 100GB disk, DVD writer, built-in webcam, etc. and all for Free! I got mine from this web site:stuffnocost.com/laptop

This laptop is very user friendly, and has a lot of unique capabilities. The screen is thin, and wide for a fantastic crisp looking screen display; however, the price is the biggest downfall of this product. (...) ... Read more

Be wary of HP
I bought a zd8060us 17" notebook with a very similar configuration to the zd8110. We absolutely loved it and for 17 months it was great but last week the graphics card failed. Unfortunately it was out of warranty but we decided we still wanted to fix it as it had cost us nearly $2000. But we have now been told by HP that they no longer carry this graphics card and there is no replacement. I cannot believe that HP would not have the parts to repair laptops they have sold in the last 2 years. I will never buy HP again after this experience. I would suggest to everyone to buy their computers with a credit card that offers to extend your warranty period which is the avenue we are pursuing now.

A machine that does everything!!... that i need though
I am 13years old graphic design lover and this lappy got me everything that I need.... well actually daddy upgraded the RAM into 2Gb PC3200 for my hobby. Dad also installed the Japanese MUI pack.. (maybe to let me know that I am a Japanese kid that living outside Japan)
Heres how to fix overheat problem
I bought this computer and had the shut down problems and the display went out in less than a year , toshiba fixed it then it did it again , and it was one week past warranty...
IMHO ... Do NOT buy this product!
To be fair, I loved the laptop ... when it worked. Its performance met all of my expectations and the 17" screen was a pleasure.

Futuristically styled in a sleek silver chassis, the Toshiba Satellite M35-S320 Notebook PC is a nifty amalgamation of the features most important to the majority of portable computer users.

Power problems, but otherwise a great computer
I've had this model for about 2 years and am generally satisfied with it with a few exceptions.The screen suddenly goes black from time to time (irrespective of the energy-saving settings), it gets burning hot after a short period of time (nearly melted a pen sitting next to it), and the battery is a real pain because it has to be plugged in after a short time (20 minutes or less).I've taken care of the battery as recommended, so that's not the cause of the short-life problem. As another reviewer pointed out, the speakers could have greater volume (to hear over the fan, lol).Also, if it could be less heavy in the ol' briefcase, that'd be nice... it's a bit cumbersome.It also seems to be slow opening programs as simple as Word and Excel. That being said, it's easy to use the wireless connection, the screen clarity is great and it's otherwise a responsive little tool.I wouldn't pay again what I paid for it in '04, but if you can get a decent discount on it, go with it.

Very good but one problem.
I think that this is a very good computer, matter of fact im using it right now but when used for 15 min it gets hot, and I mean very hot. I burned myself using it and forgetting that it gets hot. Except for that little detail, overall I have never had any viruses and I think that this computer will last me a long time.

no regrets
I bought this machine to replace my sony vaio pcg-grz630 that had some sort of unfixable issue that caused it to turn off and then only turn back on occasionally if you held your breath and tossed salt over your left shoulder while saying chants to the old-gods.My experience with Sony support was the stuff of nightmares.I never did talk to anyone who could give me any answers despite hours spent in frustration.My vaio was a "better" machine if you just look at the specs.It had a bigger hard-drive, more memory, was faster, and more expensive, but my toshiba outperforms it.Here's how:
